My daughter has taken up horse riding in the last couple of months and knew I loved to ride but hadn't I awhile. She booked a trail ride as a belated Father's Day gift for me. Had a great time and Megan is a great host. Easy to find and lots to see, fantastic view of woods lake, Oyama and the valley. Enjoy, we did!

We rented e bikes and had a great day riding the Okanagan Rail Trail. It was our first time using e bikes and the instructions were very thorough. It was a good departure point..we rode to Alexander's Beach Pub for lunch and back. Was happy we did not have to pedal on the way back!! Lots of fun.

Spion Kop

Reviewed By GSIain

We did the yellow, blue and then red trails to the summit. The North Outlook on the blue trail was disappointing as a viewing area, but the approx 2km loop was worth it. Excellent marked trails and well-cleared and cared for - the volunteers who do this are to be highly commended! And the maps at the start of the yellow trail were really appreciated - all together it took about 90 minutes to summit, and 45 mins to come back (didn't do the blue trail loop on the return). Views from the summit are SPECTACULAR! Highly recommended this for a fun outdoor event - note that it is pretty challenging the last few hundred meters... Great time!

Tranquille Farms was the first stop on a Visitor Centre Familiarization Tour of Lake Country. Lorraine, the owner, is a very passionate person. You can truly see how much she loves and cares for her horses. She had introduced us to the few horses out and showed us a new horse she had just rescued. The farm uses homeopathic methods to care for the horses. Also the farm offers trail rides, horseback riding lessons and horse training.
