It’s becoming easier to see all the new additions to the pathway through City Park in Kelowna. Despite some final touches from construction crews and fencing keeping the public out, The City of Kelowna has revealed when it will officially open.
The section of pathway was closed in fall 2025 to allow for upgrades, including separated pedestrian and recreational transportation routes, new benches, lighting, trees and landscaping, improved water access near Cenotaph Plaza and foreshore improvements.

Environmental enhancements were made along the shoreline, including relocation of the dog’s beach, supporting long-term shoreline protection and park use. The City says natural materials such as logs and boulders, along with native planting beds and bullrushes, have been incorporated to create a more resilient shoreline. The changes will help protect fish habitat, improve water quality, and reduce erosion and flooding.
The City is inviting the public to a ribbon cutting ceremony on May 15th at 1pm.
