About Explore the Map

Hey, I’m Sam! I'm based in Kelowna, BC and love exploring the Okanagan (and beyond), finding hidden trails, scenic views, and cool adventure spots.

Whether it's hiking local mountains or traveling to new places, I love sharing my journey and helping you get out there and explore too.

Can’t keep that smile off my face ☺️ Canyon Can’t keep that smile off my face ☺️ Canyoning with @okanagancanyoning is hands-down my top recommendation for adventurous things to do in Kelowna and Penticton this summer! You’ll be rappelling down waterfalls and exploring epic canyons, and yes, it’s as fun as it sounds 😄 ✨ Use code EXPLORETHEMAP10 to save 10% on your tour ✨ This clip is from their Penticton slot canyon tour which is a 4-hour adventure full of rappels in a gorgeous hidden canyon. Their Kelowna canyoning tours are just as epic and 100% beginner-friendly. You don’t need any experience, just bring your sense of adventure and get ready for the coolest day ever! I’ve done all three of their Okanagan tours, I’m happy to answer any questions ☺️ 👋 Hey, I’m Sam. Follow @explorethemap_ for fun things to do in and around the Okanagan #hosted #okanagan #canyoning #adventureiscalling
Forever chasing waterfalls ✨ 12 km down a dirt Forever chasing waterfalls ✨ 12 km down a dirt road and 1.2 km of a rooty, narrow trail brought us to this spectacular waterfall. BC, you sure are beautiful 🥰 #explorebc #waterfallhike #kootenays
Here’s how 👇 #ad @pitaland.kelowna is celebr Here’s how 👇 #ad @pitaland.kelowna is celebrating their Grand Opening in Kelowna this Saturday (July 19) and if you love fresh, flavourful Mideast food, you’ll want to add this to your weekend plans! The first 50 people through the door get a free chicken shawarma wrap! Or you can grab a chicken, gyro, or falafel plate for $9.99 anytime Saturday. Everything is soooo filling and delicious, you could easily share it! I highly recommend grabbing a wrap or plate and heading down to Mission Creek or the beach for a picnic with your friends. Nothing says summer in the Okanagan like delicious food next to the water! Everything’s also full of protein, so if you’ve spent all day adventuring, it’s a great way to refuel for your next adventure. If you’re looking for a new go-to spot for Mideast takeout in Kelowna, this is it! ✨ @pitaland.kelowna is also running a giveaway for 12 free wraps on their Instagram. Go enter and good luck! PS: These deals are only available in-person on July 19 and are limited to one per person and can’t be combined. Enjoy! #explorekelowna #cheapeats #kelownarestaurants #kelownabc #okanagan #okanaganlife

Not sure you want my advice 😬 But if you do ta Not sure you want my advice 😬 But if you do take it, you’ll wind up watching the sunrise at Moraine Lake! Which is beautiful, even when it’s cloudy. We took the @morainelakebus, which picked us up at 4am at the Lake Louise mall. We were some of the first people there, hiked up, and found a spot to sit in the dark and rain, waiting for the sun to come up. We didn’t get a colourful sunrise, but it was beautiful nonetheless.
Banff, you don’t disappoint #banffalberta #sun Banff, you don’t disappoint #banffalberta #sunrise☀️ #canada
