Walk or drive through Salmon Arm long enough and Raven Trail comes up. Scenic 4 km shoreline path for walking, running, cycling, and birdwatching along Salmon Arm Bay. Locals use it as everyday waterfront.

Heritage work is unusually visible for a Shuswap city this size. Plaques mark the CPR Station, Old Courthouse, McGuire Lake, Marine Park, the fairgrounds, Mt. Ida Cemetery, and City Hall grounds, and an On This Spot walking tour layers then-and-now photos onto the same streets.
