mcarthur island park

Can go for a walk around the park just about any time of the year. It is one of the first places to be cleared of snow in the city. Well maintained.

This is one of the best places to play sports in Kamloops. Not THE best, but it is up there. The road leaving could be smoothed out. It is rather bumpy like a 4x4 trail leaving. It also has a golf course and a restaurant.

McArthur Island is a gorgeous area to spend some quality time just strolling the pathways, visiting the ducks and squirrels....OH, and the occasional deer too. Excellent cycling here because less- to-almost-no traffic to deal with throughout the park. The xeriscape and butterfly gardens are so beautiful in the summer months but also very interesting in all seasons if one takes the time to enjoy. And there are many geocaches hidden in secret areas, it will keep you busy for awhile.

What a great area. Good parking, nice setting and a nice big hockey arena. There was even webcam in both ice surfaces. Nice look out area and lots of seats in both rinks. There was also a curling rink.

We didn't have long in kamloops- enroute to the rockies. We checked trip advisor for something to do and this rated well. What a disappointment , there was little to see and do. We played mini gold in a really run down old course ($19 for the family) drove around and left for the next park.

Keep your ears to the ground always on this park. There is always something going on or down in this place. Check it out you'll see what I mean...

this park has everything - lots of free parking as well. park is great for walking, running, skateboarding, watching sport games. Best part is along the river - take a bag of mini carrots and find a bench- closest to the boat launch - sit quiet and you will be surprised - they do not bite. They will eat out of your hand

This park is a gem. We often rollerblade around this park or occasionally bike. Our children all played in soccer tournaments here as well as attend sports clinics during the summer. We play in this park all year, walking in the winter and exploring the river bank along the way.

I have walked in this park from April until October every year. It is really beautiful and provides interesting vistas of the city, river, creek, forest and park without the heavy traffic. From mid October until late March there are strong winds and it can be very cold, so dress appropriately.

Day lilies were in bloom in the butterfly garden, which is named after my great uncle--Jack Gregson.

This park is beautiful and can be enjoyed whether you are attending a game on one of the well maintained fields, or just having a stroll.

The park is approx 3.2 km around and is a beautiful place to go for a walk or jog. There are sports fields and a play ground for kids. Along the path are also exercise areas to complete your workout.

No dogs allowed. All walking paths are level & paved, great gardens, even exercise stations along the east end. Lots of parking, mini golf & golf course that challenges the irons & even the big clubs on a couple holes, also it does not break the bank to play! Many sports fields that accomodate multitudes of soccer teams and ball teams. Great skating & curlilng rinks also.

They do not allow dogs...not a good thing they should change the rules. The fields are awesome though.

Best park I've ever been in. From the walking trail with the workout stations to, the BMX park to the soccer fields to the mini golf to the auditorium. BEST!
