Going to Similkameen Valley Wine Festival?
Free printable weekend plan — 3-day schedule, nearby hotels for the festival window, one winery worth a detour, and where to eat in British Columbia.
Canada's most organic wine valley — 80% of Similkameen producers farm organically or biodynamically — celebrates its harvest with an autumn cellar door weekend. Small family-owned wineries like Clos du Soleil, Orofino, and Eau Vivre open their doors to visitors who want a less commercial alternative to the Okanagan. The dramatic canyon landscape of the Similkameen River adds a rugged character.
