• Okanagan High Rim Trail

An interesting segment of the Okanagan High Rim trail but without as many excellent views as some of the other segments. The Monolith has geological significance as it is a glacial erratic deposited here by a long-receded glacier.

While there are few through-hikers on the High Rim Trail, this segment is accessible from the Oyama Lake Lodge Road Trailhead from which a short 2-3 km one-way hike will bring you to the Monolith. The terrain is rolling here with some short ups and downs as you hike from minor "peak" to minor "peak."
