Popular Day Hikes: Northern Okanagan -- Revised & Updated: Vernon - Shuswap - Lumby

By Gerry Shea

Thirty-nine day hikes cover the Northern Okanagan and Shuswap from Grindrod to Vernon through semi-desert, lakeside and mountain landscapes.

Popular Day Hikes: Northern Okanagan focuses on accessible routes in British Columbia's interior between the Okanagan Valley and the Shuswap. The hikes generally avoid demanding bushwhacking and technical scrambling, making the collection useful to readers seeking day trips across a range of abilities.

Destinations include Bluenose Mountain, Enderby Cliffs, Sugarloaf Mountain, Rawlings Lake Cliffs, the Adams River Trail, Roderick Haig-Brown Provincial Park, Hyde Mountain Lookout, Margaret Falls, Skimikin Lake and routes between Blind Bay and White Lake. Each entry provides trailhead directions, colour maps and photographs, seasonal information, round-trip distance, commentary and a difficulty rating.

The book combines regional travel and practical hiking information for residents and visitors exploring Vernon, the Shuswap and the northern Okanagan. It is designed for straightforward day-hike planning rather than technical mountain travel, making it useful for both visitors and local hikers planning repeat outings.
