Okanagan Road Trip October 2023

May and October

With the summer over and the cold days of fall approaching we looked for a sunny window for our last RTT trip to the Okanagan. On our way East we stopped at Sumas for a quick Gnob Gobbler/Squid Line classic. So good. We then rode near Manning park with Rory and Filip staying at the Sunshine Valley RV Park for two nights. This is a good location for these rides. We then drove to Vernon and Ellison Provincial Park which is one of our favorite places to camp with good riding nearby at Ellison park and Kalamalka Park. Soon there could be more. Book well ahead for Ellison or midweek as its very popular. This trip we booked Site 27, Site 36 would also be nice.
