The entire town of Sicamous is laced with greenway trails creating a destination worthy of exploration. You can explore separated parallel trails out to Old Town Bay, walk into the Eagle River estuary, walk the beach back over the foot bridge to the wharf park, follow designated walk/bike routes through town, stroll the walkway along the narrows to catch lunch at Moose Mulligans, wheel your kayak down to the Kappel St boat launch or Poage Ave hand launch, travel south to climb up Bayview and over to Sicamous Creek falls, link through walk/bike routes and greenway connectors to Finlayson Parks trails and exercise stations, stroll the 1 km greenway trail in the forest down the west side of Hwy 97, and of course a quick dash across the narrows bridge links you into the Sicamous Switchbacks trail, Top-O-the-Sic, Hyde Mountain Lookout, Larch Hills Traverse, and the Old Sicamous Highway trail along the lake.
Special thanks to the District of Sicamous Council and staff, the Sicamous and Area Chamber of Commerce (who really launched their trail system 20 years ago), and the Shuswap Trail Alliance and many volunteers who continue to contribute to the growing greenway trails.
