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.

I’ve got your Canada Day plans covered!

Grab your paddleboard (or kayak), a @TreStelleCheese watermelon-feta salad, and go cave hunting on Kal Lake in Vernon! With turquoise water and rugged cliffs, it feels like the Mediterranean right here in the Okanagan.

Who are you bringing?

🍉 Pro tip: Pack a container of watermelon mixed with lime, and keep your Canadian-made @trestellecheese feta separate until you’re ready to eat. Stir it together right on your board for a refreshing, high-protein snack on the water! #ad

Start at Jade Bay in Kal Lake Provincial Park. It’s a short hike down to the lake, but you’ll skip the long stretch of waterfront houses you’d paddle past if you started at Kal Beach.

Head around Rattlesnake Point toward Cosens Bay and keep your eyes peeled, there are caves and crevices tucked all along the shore!

We found one big enough to float into and a bunch of cool little spots to explore. The full route is about 7 km round trip if you go all the way to Cosens Bay, but you can stop at the dog beach, jump in the lake, and turn it into a full-day adventure.

🇨🇦 This year, I’ve been making a real effort to eat more Canadian and this Canada Day, that feels more important than ever!

It might seem like a small choice, but choosing Canadian-made adds up. Every bite is a way to support local jobs, families, and communities. So this Canada Day, let’s show Canadian brands a little extra love! ❤️🇨🇦

If you’re new here, hi! I’m Sam 👋

I love exploring the Okanagan and sharing it with you — all the cool places to explore, fun adventures to have, and delicious food to try.

I feel blessed every day to live in the Okanagan and can’t wait to help you explore more of it!

We’re a pretty entrepreneurial bunch here in the Okanagan, aren’t we?

Between the restaurants, craft breweries, small-batch distilleries, cideries, wineries, and all the local adventures popping up, it really feels like there’s always something new to try.

OC Cultivates by @okanagancollege really brings that all together and is such a fun celebration! [hosted]

It was held inside the @kfcentre this year and if you haven’t been, you’ve gotta! The lower level is an aviation museum!

Plus, the food was sooo good! There was a giant charcuterie spread by @tjsgrazing, creative little bites by @o_lakecafe, cute little macarons (my personal fave) by @okanagancollege culinary students, plus a lot more! I may or may not have gone back for seconds.

I also got to try wine, beer, and ciders from some local spots I hadn’t been to before, including @threelakesbrewing, @scenicroadcider, and @nostalgiawines.

It was also inspiring to hear from some of the people who are shaping the future of tourism in the Okanagan and how they see the future here ✨

If you’re into food, finding new local gems, or just want to feel a little more connected to what’s happening around Kelowna, definitely keep an eye out for OC Cultivates next year!

Is Paul’s Tomb the most beautiful hike in Kelown

Is Paul’s Tomb the most beautiful hike in Kelowna? It’s definitely in the running! 🌿

This Kelowna classic hugs the edge of Okanagan Lake and is so beautiful in the morning light 😍

Paul’s Tomb is a moderately easy 6.5 km round-trip hike on Knox Mountain, with about 225 m of elevation gain if you’re starting from the very bottom. Since the road to the first lookout is currently closed, you’ll need to hike up from the base, either via the paved road (a bit longer but easier) or the switchbacks for a steeper start.

At the end, you’ll find a lovely little beach, picnic tables, and benches that are perfect for a lakeside break or quick swim before heading back.

And if you’re not ready to stop, keep going along the shoreline on the Lochview Trail for even more lake views.

Save this post for your next adventure!

👋 I’m Sam, follow for more local hiking tips, hidden gems, and fun things to do around the Okanagan!
