WineriesInnovative wine makers create

new experiences that blend the

best of Okanagan flavours.


Summerland enjoys some of the best growing conditions in the Okanagan, with hilly terrain, extensive sun, and soil enriched with unique properties stemming from our regions volcanic past. And our iconic Bottleneck Drive wine route provides choice and quality around every bend.

A day spent at one of Summerlands beautiful wineries is never typical. At one a couple sips ros on a wide terrace overlooking Okanagan Lake, while at another a dozen women on a girls holiday line up to sample ice wine from tiny chocolate cups.

With 15 wineries (including one specializing in fruit wine, and a new cider company) there is something for every taste. Fine wine is best enjoyed with great food, and many of our wineries offer thoughtfully paired dishes to compliment the perfect glass of red or white.

Make space on your calendar for Bottleneck Drive events throughout the year. Spend a summer

evening with a glass of pinot noir and live jazz music, and dont miss the spectacle of vineyards adorned with lights during the annual Light up the Vines Festival in November.

e Locals Pick

Classic Style: Let yourself be whisked from winery to winery in a 1963 white Cadillac convertible from the Nixdorf Classic Car Museum.

Adventurers: Hit the winery route on your bicycle and earn your wine and chocolate samples.

Foodies: Pick a winery and call ahead to ask about food pairings. Our wine makers are passionate about creating the best atmosphere for your taste buds.

DiningOur abundant local produce

and talented chefs make

Summerland a food lovers

paradise.


Slow food is part of the Summerland lifestyle; like everything else, we take our time over our meals. Summerland chefs truly have the pick of the crop for their ingredients, with access to the best produce in the Okanagan valley, much of it grown right here in our community.

Take a trip to a winery restaurant overlooking the vineyards, then stop off at one of the amazing fruit stands in the area for your delicious double scoop of ice cream for dessert. Whether its a hearty breakfast at a local bistro to start off your day of exploring, or fine dining on the shores of Okanagan Lake, there is always something to tempt your taste buds and keep you coming back for seconds.

ough we are known for our incredible wineries, there is one other beverage that residents love just as much: coffee. Luckily, Summerland is blessed with two local artisan coffee roasters that provide fresh coffee beans to our many cafes. Head to one of the coffee houses in town for a shot of espresso or a tall,

frothy latte to see how spoiled we are. You can even take a bag or two home with you, so you can wake up and imagine youre still here.

If youre looking for something a little more unique for your dining experience, we encourage you to push the boat out-literally. Hire a pontoon boat and relax while our local extreme caterer prepares you a fabulous meal on deck. No matter what you choose, we want you to take your time. Savour the views, the company and all of those distinctive Summerland flavours.

e Locals Pick

Summer Patio hopping. Head to the lakeshore for brunch, lounge at a winery bistro in the afternoon, and choose downtown for an evening family meal.

Do breakfast right. Whether its Saturday eggs benny or a fresh organic croissant, we love our mornings, especially with extra coffee.

AttractionsWe dont leave history in the

past we invite you to become

a part of it.


You are standing on the railway platform just as a plume of steam erupts from the 3716 Spirit of Summerland engine, accompanied by its signature whistle. e conductor tips his hat and shows you to your seat in the open air carriage. As the train begins to move, snaking along the hillside of Prairie Valley, you feel whisked away to the pioneering past.

Holding a ticket for the Kettle Valley Steam Railway is like carrying a passport to the past. Gaze out the window at the passing orchards, vineyards and geological formations, before arriving at the Trout Creek Trestle Bridge where your view descends 238 feet to the canyon floor below. If youre brave enough to sign up for the Great Train Robbery, be prepared for gunslingers on horses to surround the train and demand your fortune.

Nothing beats the view of the steam train on the trestle bridge other than the one from Summerlands Ornamental Gardens. Created by Agriculture Canada in 1916, this 16-acre public garden is located on the grounds of the Pacific Agri-Food

Research Centre. Impeccably maintained by the Friends of the Gardens Society, this oasis is perfect for a relaxing stroll, informative garden tour or the loveliest outdoor wedding.

No visit to Summerland is complete without a stop at Summerland Sweets where theyve been making delicious fruit-based products since the 1950s. e scent of homemade wae cones envelopes you as soon as you open the door. Stock up on their jams, jellies, syrups and fruit wines, before grabbing a triple scoop and heading to the patio.

Car lovers wont want to miss the chance to visit the Okanagans only classic car showroom at Nixdorf Classic Car Museum, and nature enthusiasts can tour the Summerland Trout Hatchery and learn the best places to fish in the area.

You can even create a personal reminder of Summerland by following the Bead Trail. Add a bracelet charm from each location you visit and take Summerland with you wherever you go.

Arts & CultureThe rich landscape that

attracted the first settlers

continues to inspire

Summerlands artists.

Sophia Jackson/TOTA/SCC

At the Summerland Museum on Wharton Street, Summerlands history is expertly woven through the tapestry of the South Okanagans past. Youll learn how Okanagan First Nations first inhabited the area around Summerland more than 6,000 years ago, and how the natural beauty and opportunity later drew settlers and fur traders to the region. Discover the fascinating way those early pioneers lived and how the expansion of BC railroads and the Kettle Valley Steam Railway steered Summerland into the new century.

Summerlands story continues with the painted murals that adorn our downtown buildings. Tales of our agricultural history and fur trading past are displayed throughout the downtown core, a reminder of our beginnings and how far we have come.

Just as wine touring has become a popular pastime, touring Summerlands many art studios is a great way to add a dose of creativity to your visit. Drive our winding roads to meet with a wood carver, spend time with a clothing designer, chat with a watercolorist and find a new favorite piece from a local potter.

Many of our studios are open year-round with many more open by appointment. In September, local artists partner with Bottleneck Drive wineries for DeVine Arts - a weekend-long event at the Summerland Waterfront Resort.

At the heart of Summerlands art scene is the Summerland Community Arts Centre located downtown on Main Street. e Art Gallery hosts regularly changing shows of BC artists, and an extensive Summer Arts Program for children from 3-13 years.

If youre visiting Summerland in the early spring, take part in the annual tradition of painting one of the banners that will be hung around the community from May to October, a great opportunity to leave a small legacy of your visit.

From literary events to art show openings, concerts to philosophers cafes, and the annual Arts and Culture Week celebration, Summerland has no shortage of cultural events to choose from.

Outdoor AdventureAction or relaxation

whatever your passion,

Summerland has the outdoor

opportunity for you.


In Summerland, we take our playtime seriously.

Imagine hitting the links on a cool morning to play a round of golf at one of Summerlands premier golf courses. Sumac Ridge Golf Club and the Summerland Golf and Country Club both offer one of the longest golf seasons in Canada along with well-groomed greens and spectacular views.

Maybe a game of tennis is more your style? Powell Beach is home to great tennis courts located next to sweeping sandy beaches, perfect for a morning game followed by a shoreline stroll.

When the day warms up, its time to grab your boat and head out for a day on the lake. Depending on the adventure you want, rental options include

power boats, seadoos, canoes, kayaks, pedal boats and paddle boards. e best part is being able to jump right into the water to cool off from the hot summers day.

Book a trail ride and tour the South Okanagan on horseback, stopping for a picnic or just to enjoy the quiet. As the sun starts to set, head back to the beach to fish from the dock, or snuggle in next to a relaxing beach front fire.

So many tough choices Sorry for making you think so hard on your vacation.

If you need help deciding, drop by the Visitor Centre and the staff will share some of their favorites with you. Or check out www.tourismsummerland.com.

SUMMERLANDWe Make It Easier For You

Hiking & BikingWhether youre an adrenaline

junkie or someone who pauses

for picnics, Summerland will get

you climbing to new heights.

Sophia Jackson/TOTA/SCC

Standing 845 metres above the town like a beacon, the ancient face of Giants Head Mountain has been surveying its surroundings for thousands of years. Walk through the iron gates of Giants Head Mountain park to begin your ascent to the summit of Summerlands most distinctive landmark. You can choose to take the steep Confederation trail, or the more relaxing Centennial trail. Either path will lead you to breath-taking, panoramic views well worth the journey to the top.

For both hikers and cyclists, the Trans Canada/KVR trail is simply a must. e Summerland portion of the trail covers 61 kms between Penticton and Osprey Lake and features four bridges including the KVRs highest, the Trout Creek Trestle Bridge. Take your time to enjoy the amazing views of Trout Creek Canyon, as the water meanders toward Okanagan Lake 70 metres below your feet.

Explore Lower Town on the popular Centennial Trail with a stop at the Adams Bird Sanctuary just off Peach Orchard Hill.

If you prefer to take the intensity up a notch, weve got you covered. Not for the faint of heart, Giants Head Grind in May invites participants to ascend 500 metres over a five kilometre route, starting at the beach at Peach Orchard Park and crossing the finish line at the top of the mountain. For cyclists, pit yourself against the mountain in the Test of Humanity race in September where cyclists of all abilities have a chance to race and support an amazing cause.

Whether youre looking for marked trails or peaceful, meandering roads with stunning views of orchards and lakes, hikers and bikers alike will be delighted by the many options.

For complete trail information, drop by the Visitor Centre or check out www.tourismsummerland.com.

With the crackling of the campfire and the smell of roasting marshmallows in the air, nothing says summer in the Okanagan better than camping. Whether you stay in parks and campgrounds next to the shimmering lake, in a lovely wooded forest or right in the middle of a cherry orchard, theres a spot for everyone to begin their Summerland adventure.

Camping with a crowd? You can rent the entire Summerland Rodeo Grounds campsite for your event, an amazing experience to share with friends and family. So pack your tent and your favorite novel; well provide the sunshine.

This is the Life




BeachesHaving to choose between multiple beaches to find the perfect sunbathing spot is a terrible burden. Were sorry. #Okanagantough


When you stay in Summerland, youll have to grapple with some difficult questions:

Are fresh cherries more delicious chilled or at room temperature?

Should the winery tour come before or after the extensive caf lounging?

Which beach do we feel like visiting today?

With one of the most beautiful lakes in the world right outside our door, of course our beach life is going to be fantastic. e Okanagan sun implores you to make a day of it and explore all of our beaches with a delicious picnic basket. e only question is where to start.

Do you want a long walk in the sand, water sport rentals, great concession food and extensive picnic and BBQ space? Choose Sun-Oka Provincial Park at the southernmost edge of town.

Does a quieter option that includes a stroll by a pretty lighthouse and a fabulous view of the clay cliffs across the lake appeal to you? en head to the local favourite Powell Beach in the Trout Creek neighbourhood. Remember your tennis racquet; there is a lovely shaded park to play in!

Kids and teens find their fun in the beaches of the Lower Town area of Summerland. Long docks make for lots of jumping and splashing. Ample sand castle material, change room facilities and an outdoor shower can all be found at Gordon Beggs Rotary Beach.

Take a walk or cast a fishing line from the historic Kiwanis Walking Pier, also the perfect place to sit and watch the moon rise after dark.

Follow the walking path a little further to the spacious Peach Orchard Beach and Park where youll find an extensive playground and spray park. Much of Lower Town is connected via the walking path from the boat launch at Peach Orchard Park south to the Summerland Waterfront Resort.

We havent forgotten the four-legged members of your family! Head to the dog beaches at Sun-Oka or Peach Orchard parks, where Rover can play and make new doggy friends while you relax between games of fetch.

Still cant decide? Drop by the visitor centre for the local scoop on the best beach to fit your mood.

We were just as comfortable and content as if we are at home in your very distinctive place. It is so wonderful and rare to meet Hosts that really enjoyed welcoming people

into their home, not as strangers, but as guests. The gourmet Lakeview breakfasts are out of this world, we enjoyed every crumb and morsel. The bed was so luxurious and comfortable. We will remember your warmth and every single detail (that you put so much thought) into making our stay truly memorable. We have stayed at many excellent B & Bs but yours is the best.
