Penticton Ale Trail

Between the beaches, vineyards, vistas, and craft breweries, the Okanagan city of Penticton is definitely one of BC’s best-kept secrets.The name Penticton, from nsyilxcən snpintktn, translates to “a place where people have always been all year long.” After just one visit, you’ll know why.Nestled between Okanagan Lake and Skaha Lake and surrounded by vineyards, orchards, trails, and gorgeous scenery, Penticton is a paradise for cyclists, hikers, rock climbers and anyone who likes relaxing on a warm, sandy beach. Penticton has been a leader of the Okanagan craft beer scene for more than 25 years, as home to the annual Okanagan Fest of Ale, Penticton Beer Week, and a strong community of craft breweries, known collectively as the Penticton Beer Blocks. And in 2020, that legacy was recognized by Lonely Planet when it named Penticton as Canada’s “craft beer capital.”For a full travel itinerary to inspire your Penticton ale-venture, head to the BC Ale Trail website: Penticton Ale Trail
