Penticton is bike friendly! Explore the map!
Bicycles benefit businesses, employees, and the community alike. Our Bike Friendly Penticton Program aims to acknowledge and support businesses that encourage biking as a mode of transportation for their customers and staff. By making it more convenient for people to cycle, businesses can help reduce the number of cars on the roads, leading to lower emissions and promoting healthier lifestyles within our community.
