Welcome Greenway Visitors
 |
The Greenway
is over 17km in length and travels through two distinctively different
environments. The first phase is about 7km from Lakeshore Road to Ziprick
Road, and is a very flat wide pathway with no hills. See maps under Phase
1 and Phase 2 to the left.
Phase 2, from Ziprick Road to KLO Creek, is about 9km and features a canyon
environment, generally narrower trail, bridges, and some steep hills with
switchbacks. This portion of the trail may not be suitable for young children
or those not accustomed to difficult hikes. |
Access to the Greenway
is at Lakeshore Drive, Gordon Drive (parking in the Mission Sportsfield),
Casorso, KLO Road, Springfield Road at Durnin Road, Ziprick Road (parking
area), Graham Road, Gerstmar Road (parking area), Tamarack Drive, Creek Street,
Hollywood Road, Pasadena Road, East Kelowna Road, Hollywood Road south Trailhead
and parking area and in Scenic Canyon Regional Park (parking lot off Field
Road).
Dogs must be kept on a leash within park boundaries and owners should clean
up after their pets. Motorized vehicles are not permitted on the trails.
Overnight camping or open fires are not permitted.
For more information on trail directions or conditions call the Regional
Parks office at 469-6232.
