The original trails that were built on the City of Kelowna Parkland above Stockley up to the beautiful viewpoint have been there for many years. The 340 steps, rock benches, and fencing at viewpoints, were created to the specification of the City of Kelowna. The City provides garbage cans as well. The trails in this parkland above Cypress Point were built in partnership Between Melcor Developments and The City of Kelowna with a shared cost of over $400,000.
Since the trails above Cypress were created, Melcor has gone on to build a variety of Natural trails within the community, to allow access to the hillsides and views for all residents. Please note natural trails will never have snow removal.
Our hillsides and forests have a very special and unique ecosystem that we take very seriously.
Please click here for a download version for the BlueSky Trail Map. This map was recently created to help educate the community about ALL of the natural trails in BlueSky providing species of animals, birds, vegetation, etc. that share the hillsides with us humans.
The trees along Stockley Street are maintained both by the City of Kelowna as well as the Cypress Residents. The trees/vegetation below your lands were planted by the Cypress community based on the Development Permit that was created with the City of Kelowna before Cypress was ever allowed to begin developing the property. The trees on the Cypress property are the responsibility of Cypress.
Please never remove dead branches from any trees not on the Cypress property as it may be harmful to their growth and cause further stress and damage.
