Get in

The village can only be accessed by road, adding to its exclusivity and hidden charm. It's an exhilarating 35-45 minute drive from Penticton, offering breathtaking views along the way. To reach the village, follow the scenic Green Mountain Road for 20km from town. As you soak in the natural beauty, be prepared to turn right at the Apex Guest Ranch. If you happen to be coming from the enchanting town of Keremeos, simply turn left at the ranch and continue your journey. For the adventurous souls, there is an alternative route called the Hedley Corkscrew Road. This thrilling path winds down the mountain, boasting tight switchbacks perched on steep cliffs. However, it is wise to attempt this route only with a reliable 4x4 vehicle, particularly during the winter months (Read: an epic Hummer). Explore this idyllic village and immerse yourself in its awe-inspiring surroundings!
