Last summer, our hike up the Penticton sign (similar to the Hollywood sign) up on the Munson Mountain. My husband and @joordanzzz playing around.

Blue sky above the tubing river channel, running from the Okanagan Lake, thoughtout Pentcton city, to the Skaha Lake. Awesome tourist attraction place in summer for tubing down the river.

This is I, @joalvarez with my mother-in-law, looking for the fish on the bottom of the river. Great place to do some fishing and it is in the middle of Penticton.

Skaha Lake during summer time. It's usually way more busy than this, but this was later in the evening.

My husband and @joordanzzz up in Carmi Park of Penticton. Another amazing place, not so popular where you can really just have a nice picnic, read a book, meditate ets.

We have not explored even small portion of hiking places around Penticton, while living here 3 years, so I can't wait to warm up so that we can keep on exploring new places to hike and things to do.
If you are a person who loves the outdoors, lakes, beaches, hot weather, wine, fresh fruit, amazing hiking places etc. then this is the place for you to come and visit. No wonder this is one of the most amazing tourist places in Canada and I'm so happy to be able to live here for now and experience it all.


Hope you enjoyed the blue skies of Penticton and I wish you all a wonderful weekend. Now it's time to take a little break and go for a small hike up the KVR Trail. See you soon.

There are a lot of photos I wanted to comment to individually haha! First things first: Wow! It makes me want to go there and spend a good day such as that to enjoy nature and for photo shoot. That's a perfect place to do that.

I just want to keep scrolling and enjoy the photos.

In one photo of the trees, at first I thought one of them is on fire.

Your photo of the Skaha Lake where the blue skies reflect on it is my favorite in this set. Every element about it is just lovely. Also, it seems it's shallow, no? The person is too far away and the water did not even reach knee deep.

I was hoping to see a photo where the sign Penticton (?) is visible.

Also, have I mentioned you look lovely as well?

Cheers! Have a good weekend!

I think you can see the sign on this pictures which was taken from the opposite side of the lake and the Munson Mountain with the Penticton sign.
Thank you for your awesome comment my friend. It is very, very appreciated,
Have a lovely weekend.

So there it is. I must have missed it.

very beautiful landscape vote behind me @ faisalmanok

@joalvarez thank you for sharing all these pretty pictures showing the beautiful blue skies of Penticton. I´m fascinated with all the landscape you have showed on this post. I hope to visit Penticton someday, specially to go hiking. Which months of the year is Penticton most visited by tourists? Best regards from @presentnworldsc

Summer months, are the most visited months, right after school finishes, so July and August because you can enjoy the lakes. May and June are pretty busy too, but not as much.
I hope that one day you will be able to visit Penticton or the Okanagan. It is so worth it. Penticton is like a tropical place in Canada during summer.

A lot of beautiful photos you've got here! :)
This one I like the most:

Thank you so much @borran and yes, I love this one too and you can also hear a river that runs through these mountains from the bottom.

These photos are real gold! I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this post . Looking at these beautiful views that you provided through these crystal clear pictures is making me love hiking even more. I haven't tried hiking myself but Its one of my passion that I want to start doing at some point in my life.

Thank you for contributing to the Steemit Community.Keep up the great work and I'm looking forward to your next posts.

Thank you so very much for your lovely words. I hope that soon you can try hiking and I'm pretty sure you will fall in love with it, because there is nothing more freeing and peaceful than to be around nature.

Definitely = )
