The Phase 1 Project
The Phase 1 Greenway project was announced in 1996 and was the most successful community funded project in Kelowna's history.

Landowners along the Greenway donated in excess of 16 acres of land valued at more than $300,000.

The Phase 1 project extends from Lakeshore Road to Ziprick Road, a distance of 7.3 kilometres. Trail construction was completed in 1998.

The Phase 1 Greenway is a universal access trail. It is well used all year by walkers, hikers, runners, bicyclists, wheelchair users, and equestrians. Usage is estimated at over 1,000 people a day.

The Trail
Hundreds of volunteers donated many hours of time to help us achieve our campaign goal.

School children were major contributors to the success of the Greenway. They were encouraged to participate by School Superintendent Ron Rubadeau who designated their involvement in the Greenway as a citizenship program. Student involvement included creek clean-ups, and the creation of artworks and written material for the interpretive signs.
