Myra Canyon Adventure Park

Description

Myra Canyon Adventure Park is the kind of place that makes you feel like a kid again — even if you haven’t been on a zip line or scaled a climbing wall in decades. Tucked away in a gorgeous woodland setting, it’s an outdoor playground for all ages, though kids in particular seem to light up here. The park blends nature with a dose of adrenaline, offering zip lining, treetop obstacle courses, and climbing routes that challenge both your body and your nerve. You can hear the faint hum of laughter and excited shouts drifting through the trees, and if you’re anything like me, you’ll find yourself grinning before you’ve even clipped into a harness.

It’s not polished to the point of feeling artificial — and that’s part of the charm. The courses are built into the natural environment, so you’re weaving between tall pines, feeling the crunch of needles underfoot, and catching glimpses of the sky through the canopy. Some folks breeze through the obstacles, others take their time, and there’s no pressure either way. While the park is well-maintained and safety is clearly a top priority, it still manages to keep that raw, adventurous vibe that makes you feel like you’re really out in the wild.

Of course, no place is perfect. On busy days, you might find yourself waiting a little longer for your turn on certain activities, and if you’re not a fan of heights, some sections might push you out of your comfort zone. But honestly, that’s kind of the point here — to challenge yourself, to try something new, and maybe to surprise yourself with what you can do. For families, groups of friends, or even team-building events, it’s a spot that leaves you with stories to tell long after you’ve left.

Best Time to Visit

If you can, aim for late spring through early fall. That’s when the weather in this part of British Columbia tends to be just right for outdoor adventures — not too hot, not too chilly. Summer weekends can get busy, so if you prefer a quieter experience, try a weekday morning. I went once in early September, and it was perfect: crisp air, golden light filtering through the trees, and no long waits for the zip lines. The park is open during the warmer months, and while you could technically visit on a cooler day, the experience is way more enjoyable when you’re not shivering in a harness.

How to Get There

Getting to Myra Canyon Adventure Park is pretty straightforward, but you will want to plan ahead, especially if you’re not from the area. The park sits a short drive from Kelowna, and you’ll need a vehicle to get there — no public transit runs directly to the entrance. The drive itself is part of the fun, winding through scenic landscapes that make you want to stop for photos every few kilometers. If you’re using a GPS, just make sure you’ve got the right location pinned before you set off; cell service can get spotty as you get closer to the park.

Tips for Visiting

First off, wear comfortable clothes you don’t mind getting a bit dusty — this is not the place for your brand-new white sneakers. Closed-toe shoes are a must, and if you have climbing gloves, bring them; your hands will thank you later. I’d also recommend packing a water bottle and maybe a light snack, especially if you’re planning to spend several hours here. The activities can be surprisingly tiring, and it’s easy to forget to hydrate when you’re having fun.

If you’re bringing kids, make sure they meet the height and age requirements for the courses you want to try. The staff are great at helping little ones feel comfortable, but some obstacles might be a stretch (literally) for younger visitors. And while the park is very safe, it’s still an adventure environment — meaning a few bumps and scrapes are just part of the deal.

Finally, book ahead if you can. While walk-ins are possible, spots can fill up fast during peak season. Arriving early in the day not only gives you more time to explore but also means you’ll beat the crowds and the midday heat. Oh, and don’t forget your camera — whether it’s for capturing your friends mid-zip line or just the beauty of the forest, you’ll want those memories to take home.
