About

Along with the City’s feature trail systems, like the Turner Creek Rotary Trail, Foreshore Trail, Park Hill, Coyote Park, South Canoe, Pileated Woods, and Little Mountain, new greenway links continue to be added throughout the community. These new trail corridors create interesting new outings for walking and cycling and expand the city’s active transportation network. Watch for community greenway trail signs.

A few additions of note:

Hillcrest Heights greenway path just south of Hillcrest School connecting 20 St SE and 10 Ave SE, built by local developers as part of the new city greenway strategy. 

Cress Creek Trail is a pretty forest walk along a creek linking 20 Ave NE just east of the Salmon Arm Secondary Sullivan Campus down to Lakeshore Rd near Appleyard. A longer circuit can include taking the perimeter trail around Sullivan Campus and Bastion Elementary School to the highway underpass walkway at 20 St NE. Then go on the Turner Creek Rotary Trail down to McGuire Lake and the Foreshore Trail before linking back to Cress Creek via Lakeshore Rd. 

The Kiy Connector links Old Auto Road with 11 St SE. It’s a quiet forest connector between subdivisions that also makes a great link from the downtown core to Pileated Woods and Hillcrest. 

The Ready Forest Trail is another pretty forest walk that links 5 Ave NE with Okanagan Ave, just west of Okanagan College and south of the Recreation Centre. Create an interesting circuit with Shuswap Middle School, Little Mountain Park, and the upper Turner Creek Rotary trail.
