Pincushion Mountain Trail Description
The Pincushion Mountain Trail is a popular out-and-back route located in Peachland, BC, making it easily accessible for locals and visitors not interested in driving long distances for Okanagan Lake’s incredible views.
The 2.1mi out-and-back trail is well-marked, making it hard to get lost. The trail winds as if it’s going to form a circuit, but it stops before looping back around, forcing you to stop and bask in the views before turning around and returning the same way you came.

Some nice views at the top. Steep but not too technical. Don't blindly follow the most marked path. For an unknown reason people seems to enjoy cutting the turns leading to a much more difficult path and massive erosion. The original trail is less marked but much more enjoyable.
