Research 4 parks within weekend reach of Penticton, classified from Wikidata types and ordered by measured straight-line distance from the city centre. Distances only — no travel times, schedules, or rankings.
Each place is classified from its own Wikidata type, not from its name, and is ordered by measured straight-line distance from the centre of Penticton. Distances are great-circle kilometres between two published coordinates — this page does not publish travel times, transport schedules, opening hours, ticket prices, or rankings. Confirm access, facilities, and seasonal conditions with an official source before travelling.
