WELCOME TO PENTICTON Penticton isn’t just a destination. It’s an experience. It’s uncovering something new around every corner. It’s unwittingly walking into one of 70 plus award-winning wineries, then another, then maybe another. It’s stunning lakes, world-class trails, and living the foodie life, farm-totable. It’s beautiful bike rides, alluring beaches, and a rich, charming culture. It’s skiing – both behind a boat and down a slope. It’s some of the best winter activities this Province has to offer. It’s doing it all or doing nothing. It’s something for everyone, it’s here, and it’s waiting to be discovered.

Make the Penticton & Wine Country Visitor Centre your first stop when you arrive.

Here you will find an abundance of “insider information” and ideas to make your visit a memorable one. Free Wi-Fi, maps, brochures and a friendly smile to make you feel at home are just a few of the things waiting for you. The Visitor Centre is the hub for tips on hiking/cycling, winery maps as well as suggestions on where to eat – or dine – or that perfect activity for the family. Watch out for our Pop Up Info Booth around town – bringing information to you. Welcome to Penticton – a place you will want to stay a while – or perhaps a place to stay forever.

ADVENTURE

WHETHER YOU ARE AN ADRENALINE JUNKY, A YOGA ENTHUSIAST OR JUST LOOKING FOR A GENTLE STROLL PENTICTON CAN SATISFY. Trails for cycling are plentiful or take a stroll around Vaseux Lake and do a little bird watching. Hike to the top of a peak and enjoy the majestic view of lake and mountain. Glide across the lake in a kayak or a stand up paddle board - you may just end up staying a while – or forever.

• Get vertical on one of the more than 1,000 climbing routes at Skaha Bluffs Provincial Park.

• Cycle the historic Kettle Valley Rail Trail. The 40km stretch, Chute Lake to Penticton is an experience not to be missed. Check in with the team at the Visitor Centre, they can assist with booking a shuttle to Chute Lake, making it an enjoyable one way trip.

• Fans of mountain biking will revel in the numerous trails found at Three Blind Mice or Campbell Mountain.

Both areas offer varying degrees of difficulty, from the novice to the thrill seeker.

FAMILY FUN

PENTICTON IS ONE OF JUST TWO CITIES IN THE WORLD THAT SITS BETWEEN TWO LAKES. Beaches and water fun are part of the summer culture here – dive in like a local and get wet!

• The inflatable water park is perfect for the younger set. Parents can relax in a beach chair and watch the wet fun as the kids climb, bounce and jump into the water.

• Grab a cold treat at the fruit shaped concession stand on the beach.

• Take part in the Sandcastle competition during Peach Fest.

There are rental locations at both Okanagan and Skaha Lake as well as in Naramata.

• Book a night-time SUP – the boards have lights that make the water glow, attracting fish – truly magical.

• Float the river channel that connects Okanagan Lake to Skaha Lake.

• Rent a boat – toodle around the lakes, take a picnic with you and have a swim. Be water-smart – no glasses of wine out here.

• Kayak – so peaceful and great exercise. Rentals are readily available or you can book a guided tour.

VINEYARDS

With Summerland, Okanagan Falls and the Naramata Bench so close by, you have almost unlimited choice and are sure to find something to please your palate. The experience is authentic and intimate; often you will find the proprietor or the wine maker behind the tasting bar regaling guests with tales of the grapes journey to the glass. Many wineries have added a culinary offering, enticing you to stay and savour, drink in the views along with whatever gorgeous drop is in your glass.

NARAMATA BENCH

VINEYARDS

While spending time at the tasting bar, you will hear all kinds of “wine speak” being thrown around, here are a few of the terms translated.

Aroma: What you smell in the glass.

Always give the wine a nice swirl in the glass, this allows the wine to interact with the air and makes it easy to sniff out the notes on the tasting sheet.

Bouquet: No, they are not offering you flowers – this term refers to the scent of the wine, which is often more than just a singular thing.

Buttery: A term generally used when describing Chardonnay that has a buttery mouthfeel, or buttered popcorn character.

Tannin: Tannins which are extracted from the grape skins and stems – this is what makes you pucker up sometimes.

Terroir: This essentially means where the grape was grown.

Veraison: Term for when the grapes change color from green to deep purple for red wines or golden and pink for white grapes. Wine peeps get quite excited about this as it means that harvest and crush are approaching.
