Myra Canyon: Teddy Bear Loop
Individual Trail
Central Okanagan / Myra Canyon
21 min driving from Downtown Kelowna
The wide trail contours through the burn zone from the 2003 wildfires. It includes lookouts that provide great views of the Mission area, Knox Mountain and downtown Kelowna.
A moderate hike, the trail begins at the park entrance, take a left and continue following this path until you hit the junction. The terrain evens out at the junction and then leads you through a dense trail of local vegetation, head right on the Pink Highway, turn right at Natasha and follow the slightly steep path down. Take a right on Boris and then Earring, you will eventually loop back to where you started.
Shoes that handle mud well are advised in the earlier months for grip, and due to the dense areas you may travel through, make sure to check for ticks when you get home.
