Hot, dry weather has pushed the fire danger in regional parks to extreme.
The Regional District Central Okanagan (RDCO) reminds visitors that smoking, vaping and open flames are not allowed in regional or community parks. Fines range from $50 to $2,000.
Propane barbeques are permitted but must be attended to and kept safely away from any flammable materials.
Anyone seeing a wildfire should call 911 immediately.
The RDCO offers more than 2,100 hectares of parkland including 86 kilometres of designated trails in 30 parks.
