City of Gastronomy

Spring Break is the perfect time to escape to Kelowna. The days are getting longer, blossoms are just starting to appear, and the valley is waking up with energy. Whether you’re planning a family trip, a couples’ getaway, or a week of outdoor adventure, Kelowna offers plenty of ways to make Spring Break memorable.

Outdoor Adventure

By March, trails around the valley are starting to open up. Families can head to Knox Mountain Park for lake views and easy hikes, or cycle the scenic Okanagan Rail Trail along turquoise waters. For more adventure, book a guided experience, go ziplining, horseback riding, or early-season golf when the fairways turn green.

Family-Friendly Fun

Kelowna is packed with activities kids love. Explore hands-on exhibits at the Okanagan Heritage Museum, meet creatures at the H2O Adventure + Fitness Centre, or enjoy bowling, climbing gyms, and indoor play parks when the weather calls for it. Many family-friendly attractions also host special Spring Break programming.

Taste of the Season

Spring is the beginning of patio season in Kelowna. Parents can enjoy a coffee or glass of wine on the patio while kids enjoy space to play outdoors. Local restaurants and cafés showcase fresh, seasonal flavours, and sweet treats from ice cream shops or bakeries make for perfect family rewards after a day outside.
