Day use park with picnic areas, beaches and many hiking trails with some nice views that show off Kalamalka Lake's vibrant colour in summer. The terrain is hilly with a mix of grassland, forest and wetlands. Mountain biking is allowed in some areas of the park. Note that all beach access requires some walking. The park is undeveloped and only has pit toilets.
Kalamalka Lake Provincial Park and Protected Area is a provincial park in Coldstream, British Columbia, Canada. Located within the Okanagan region, the park encompasses a land area of about 978 hectares of pristine natural areas in the North Okanagan Regional District. Kalamalka Lake Provincial Park and Protected Area adopted its current name from Kalamalka Lake, for which it is located on its shore. During the process of entering summer, calcium carbonate forms crystals that reflect sunlight and create the vivid blue and green colours. Temperature changes in the fall and the spring sometimes create ribbons of deep blue colour in the lake, seen from the park.

Bee farm with glass hives that allow you to watch the bees make the honey, honey and mead tasting, and a gift shop with a large selection of honey products. For a small fee, there are information presentations available daily in July/Aug and on weekends in June and Sept that provide more info on bees and beekeeping. The bees are active year round but are most active in the summer.
Davison Orchards
A family-run apple orchard that has become a popular family attraction. There are some sheep, goats and chickens (feed is available for 25¢), two playgrounds, lots of tractors to look at (or climb onto), and a 20-minute tractor-drawn ride (the Johnny Popper Tour) through the orchard where the guide explains some of the history of the orchard and what they do. A bakery and cafe sell freshly baked goods, including the popular apple cider donuts, and the shop sells local fruit and their cold-pressed fresh apple juice.
