café or farm stand, or pack a picnic to enjoy by one of our
sparkling lakes. Stop awhile in a friendly town, and take in

your dream come true. With endless stretches of mindblowing scenery, breathtaking shorelines, and lush hills,
this is the perfect place for touring by car or motorcycle.
Get in the driver’s seat
and experience the
Shuswap’s winding roads

– so smooth and clean
that you might just think
you’re floating. Paved

don’t need to stress on
fast-paced four-lane
