You can launch your boat from Downtown Salmon Arm, Canoe Beach (7min from downtown) or one of the many other boat launches in the Shuswap region.

Shuswap Trails & Parks There are many trails and parks to explore right in the city of Salmon Arm.  Wander down the wharf and along Marine Peace Park with your family, meet a friend to stroll around McGuire Lake park, take a run through Coyote Park, mountain bike in Park Hill, hike with your dog in Little Mountain or walk the beach in Canoe (to name a few). Then, not far past the city limits, drive up to Fly Hills to snowmobile/ATV or take a trip to Larch Hills to cross-country ski, hike or bike. There is so much terrain to explore. But be sure to do some research before you go, so that you can be prepared with water, snacks and a safety plan.  Find online maps, trail guides and more info here: Shuswap Trails
