Looking for something different to do while the weather is still nice? We rented a slingshot out for the day from our friends over at Adrena Rush. A slingshot is the product child of the batmobile and a go-kart. Of course thanks to Batman the go-kart gets the upgrade of its life that screams LUXURY. If you’re wanting to embrace your boss-bitch energy then this is the ride for you!
What to Expect
This baby comes with heated AND cooling seats, which is an absolute must if you’re taking her out for the whole day. With Kelowna weather we recommend bringing some sunscreen and water as you’ll be in direct sun during the day.
Some things we recommend checking out with the slingshot:
- Wineries
- Lookout points (See this post for good spots)
- Special events
Basically anything you do, make sure there’s a nice drive involved, because every seat in the slingshot is the best seat. 🏎️
What We Did
We started our day by driving down Lakeshore road until you can’t go any further. Down here you’ll see the remains from the 2003 fire, along with numerous GORGEOUS views and houses. We stopped at Cedar Creek Park and Okanagan Mountain Provincial Park to stop and take in our surroundings. The water is only a few steps away from these spots and the seats are waterproof! We went for a quick jump in the lake before continuing on with our afternoon. Be aware that there is very little lockable space for you to store belogings in the vehicle so pack light.
Next, we made our way back down Lakeshore to refuel with a late lunch at Summerhill Winery. Now that tourist season is over, I find it so much more enjoyable to go to these romantic spots during our off season . It’s not too busy or loud which is prefect when spending time with your loved ones. Cedar Creek Winery and Barn Owl Brewing are other good places along the way to stop for a quick bite and local beverage. T
Also, the looks you get are pretty nice for the ego if I’m being honest 😅
Finally on our way home we stopped downtown and grabbed some ice cream at Parlour. We walked along the boardwalk to take in the last bit of sunshine before heading home. What a day for views! It was definitely more comfortable once it got a little cooler since all we had was natural AC. Not too noticeable though since we chose roads with the least amount of stop lights (highly recommend). Adrena Rush then met us downtown and we returned the vehicle at that point.
My Final Thoughts
My final thoughts are that Adrena Rush provided a great way to have a whole entire date day. Whether it be with your significant other, your family member, or friend. It’s a very luxurious way to spend the day or a few hours which is great depending on your itinerary. We loved how there were no doors or roof so you really got to enjoy all the views nature had to offer. I recommend adding them to your Discovering Kelowna list before the end of the season!
