British Columbia: Vernon to Naramata

Snaking south along Highway 97 is a veritable feast for the eyes (and tummies, if you allow for pitstops).

There’s no shortage of artisan producers along this route, from fruit farms to apiaries to vineyards, you won’t go hungry. Motor over to Elephant Island Orchard Wines, a family-friendly winery, where the tots can enjoy a teddy bear picnic under the canopy of magnificent oaks and elms.
