The Naramata Creek Park hiking trail follows Naramata Creek up through a deep river canyon to a cascading waterfall. The hike is about 2.4 km, round trip, and takes about an hour or so. The towering rock slabs, trees and trickling creek help keep the gully cool, even on the most sweltering of Okanagan days. The trail is lovely year round, and worth visiting regularly to witness the changes that each season brings.
There’s an outhouse at the trailhead, several well maintained bridges, a bench and picnic tables along the first section of the trail. The trail is packed dirt with some rocks and roots jutting out. *Watch out for poison ivy
Directions
Naramata’s Creek Park is located north of Penticton, BC on the east side of Okanagan Lake. To get there drive north towards Naramata and just before swerving left down into the small town of Naramata look for a narrow, easy to overlook, road on the right side. There is a bus stop and park signage at the end of the road. The entrance to the park is very easy to miss unless you know what to look for.
