The Okanagan Valley’s Naramata region is home to pristine nature, an abundance of wineries and the famous Kettle Valley Railway trail. Many take to the trail to go hiking or biking as it’s the perfect place to explore by foot (or pedal). A stop at Little Tunnel is a must if you’re passing by.
The trail from Smethurst parking lot to the tunnel is 3.8 kms one way. It’s a relatively easy route to take on with lots of history. The trail used to service the mining industry but now it’s all for recreational use.
The trek is mostly uphill, giving you a bit of a workout that will be rewarded at the end. Little Tunnel offers incredible 180-degree views of Naramata, Summerland and Penticton.

Little Tunnel is 5 hours away from Vancouver, but well worth the road trip. For more cool things to do in the region, check out this infinity pool overlooking Okanagan Lake and this magical lavender herb farm.
