Take a Hike!

One of the many draws to Lake Country, and the Okanagan in general, is the abundance of wonderful recreational activities available to residents year-round.  Of course the area is famous for its skiing in the winter, but the Okanagan also has a reputation for being one of the hottest summer vacation destinations in the country!  Between the many lakes, golf courses, and wineries, there's plenty to keep yourself busy with in the warmer months.  But if you're looking for some regular activity right outside of your own front door, then Cadence at The Lakes is the place to be, with access to excellent hiking and walking trails right within The Lakes development.

Walk Around Lake Country, a volunteer group dedicated to establishing and maintaining hiking and walking trails throughout the community, has recently completed a cairn marker at what they're calling "The Grand Overlook," part of the Spion Kopje Mountain Trails network.  From this newest vantage point, hikers will be rewarded with stunning views of the entire Okanagan Valley, including Okanagan Lake, Wood Lake, Duck Lake, Lake Country's orchards and vinyards, plus the surrounding mountain ranges.  Residents of Cadence will find easy access to these trails at the southern trail head located at The Lakes' reservoir area.  Please see #13 on the left-hand side of the following map for further details:
