7. Buchanan Lookout

Reviewed By Escape537726
We drove to the parking lot that is up the side of the mountain so the hike to the top was minimized. It’s an easy trail to the top if you are reasonably fit (maybe an hour to hour and half walk up and then back) and the view from the scenic lookout is 360 degrees. It’s well worth the minimal effort required.The paragliders were flying in full force taking off regularly while we were there from the Lookout summit and the weather was sunny and clear. You can see the Arrow Lake below and all the smaller towns in the area. If you have a spare morning or afternoon, highly recommended. It’s make the beer afterwards taste even better!
8. Kaslo River Trail

Reviewed By SBBrown58 - Lundbreck, Canada
I walked this trail twice one day during a visit to Kaslo. The first time I my own and later the same day I walked it in the opposite direction with my wife. For being so close town it is a really wonderful trail to walk if you have an hour or so. I was on the lookout for opportunities for some nature photos and found plenty to point my camera at. Even in October there are some flowers still in bloom. Several bird varieties and some squirrels to be seen. The river itself is quite lovely. There are several amusing concrete sculptures on the upper end of the trail which were quite unexpected and added to the walk through the forest. The two bridges are in themselves quite remarkable and worth a visit. I applaud the efforts of the local supporters and volunteers he erected them.

This wonderfully restored steamship is amazing, please make this a stop and support their efforts to preserve history. There is an admission but it’s well worth it. I started with the informational video that I found helped put it all in context, then explore the ship at your leisure. Lots of information both in the brochure and on the signs that tell a wonderful story of the role this shipped played but also about the lives of people that would be passengers. Don’t miss this stop.
