Experience Suggestions

Discover the Shuswap’s myriad lakes on a houseboat and find out what it’s like to make your home right on the water. You’ll be treated to a whole new perspective on your surroundings – and on what it means to relax.

The Salmon Arm Roots & Blues Festival is not to be missed.

If you crave outdoor adventure, try the epic 38-kilometre Larch Hills Traverse, any season of the year – hiking, biking, or skiing. The traverse is made up of seven distinct sections, connecting forestry roads and singletrack through a variety of ecosystems and terrain.  Check out one of the three nearby alpine ski resorts or the Shuswap Trail Alliance for more outdoor recreation options.

Golfers can enjoy one of several world-class golf courses within the Shuswap, with options ranging from family fun to championship courses.

Take in the beautiful scenery and wonderful tastes of the Shuswap with a farm or wine tour, and get back to nature. With routes suitable for driving and cycling, there are options for any length of stay. Download the Full Circle Farm Tours guides here.
