The Osoyoos Desert Centre is a nature interpretive centre where visitors can learn about desert ecology, habitat restoration and conservation of endangered ecosystems in the South Okanagan. The Centre offers visitors an opportunity to explore Canada's desert by taking a guided or self-guided tour along a 1.5 km wooden boardwalk. Visitors can also enjoy hands-on activities and exhibits in the interpretive centre or take a stroll through the native plant demonstration garden. We are located 3 km north of Osoyoos off Hwy 97 and are open annually from late April through early October.
