Here, you can learn all about the cultures and traditions of the Okanagan First Nation people, the history of fur trading, liquor distilling, and much more besides. Culture vultures should also set aside time to explore the Art Gallery Osoyoos and the Okanagan Art Gallery, both of which showcase an eclectic array of work by local arts and artisans. The Osoyoos Desert Model Railroad is a charming family-friendly attraction, where you can marvel at miniature trains as they rattle through intricate models of European style towns and villages.

On the doorstop of your Osoyoos vacation rental you’ll find a seemingly endless expanse of natural spectacle, begging to be explored. Hikers and mountain bikers are spoiled for choice, but the scenic ascent up Anarchist Mountain is a trail to prioritize – you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views of the surrounding valleys. Shimmering Osoyoos Lake offers a setting for all manner of aquatic activities, from leisurely pursuits like sailing and fishing, to adrenalin-pumping pastimes like wake boarding and jet skiing. And no visit to Osoyoos is complete without a self-indulgent day of wine tasting.
