The Naramata Bench is made for weekends like this.

From Friday through Sunday, it’s all about celebrating the ones who make everything feel a little brighter - moms of every kind.

A glass of something lovely.
Fresh flowers in hand.
A table set for brunch.
A quiet walk by the lake.

Long lunches, bloom bars, beach days, and those slow, sun-filled moments that turn into lasting memories - there are so many beautiful ways to say thank you here.

Whether you’re planning something special or simply letting the day unfold, this is what weekends in Naramata are all about.

Unplug, unwind, and celebrate Mom 🩷

Some places just make you say it… hallelujah.

May in Naramata - the trails are calling, the lake is warming up, patios are pouring, and the village is finding its rhythm again. Not staged, not filtered… just naturally this good.

Hikes, bikes, swims, sips, slow strolls and sunset moments you didn’t plan but won’t forget.

Come as you are. Stay a little longer.

The heart wants what’s in Naramata.

From Bordeaux to the Bench 🍇

What happens when a Canadian, inspired by French wine, crosses paths with a sixth-generation French winemaker?

The story of Dylan and Penelope Roche is one of love, risk, and starting over - taking them from Bordeaux to New Zealand and ultimately to the Naramata Bench, where they’ve built Roche Wines from the ground up.

It’s not just about what’s in the glass (which is delicious!) - it’s about the journey behind it.

Simple, soulful, and rooted in community

Step inside the story of Just Baked | 9 Mile, Naramata, where early mornings, buttery scones, and perfectly pulled espresso come together to create something truly special.

What started as a late-night idea has grown into a beloved gathering place, fuelled by passion, family, and a deep love for this little lakeside village.

From Ashley’s commitment to keeping things beautifully simple, to her dedication to sustainability and community connection, this is more than a coffee shop, it’s the heart of a neighbourhood.

✨ Come for the coffee, stay for the feeling.

Trails that connect us. Stories that move us.

In our newest Discover Naramata Member Story, slow travel writer Mike Bilodeau explores how the trail networks of the Okanagan act as the arteries that bind communities together - and how one local bike shop has spent decades helping people experience that connection firsthand.

Meet Kurt Flaman of Freedom Bike Shop, who has been setting riders loose on the Naramata Bench for 25 years. From leisurely e-bike rides along the KVR to forested mountain trails above the Naramata Bench, Kurt believes the best way to discover this place is simply to get on a bike and follow your curiosity.

🚲 Vineyard roads, rail trails, alpine climbs and desert grasslands - it’s all waiting just beyond the handlebars.
