Crowsnest Scenic Highway Road Trip

153.1 miles: 2 hours, 43 minutes

Journey through the Cascade Mountains’ lush forests between Hope and Osoyoos. Wildlife often uses the byway as a shortcut between shady wooded glens, so look out for elk, deer and black bears. Admire long-range vistas of glacier-carved valleys at turnouts along the way.

Curvaceous mountains loom large along this western section of the Crowsnest Highway; the Similkameen River flows beside it from Princeton to Keremeos. Green valleys laced with streams and rivers mark E.C. Manning Provincial Park and wildflowers bloom in subalpine meadows. Pick up organic cherries and apricots at a fruit stand in the arid Okanagan Valley near Osoyoos.
