Myra Canyon Trestles Bike Tour

Experience one of the Okanagan's most spectacular cycling adventures with our guided Myra Canyon Trestles Bike Tour. This remarkable journey takes you along a section of the historic Kettle Valley Railway, an engineering marvel built in the early 1900s that has been transformed into a world-class recreational trail. Your adventure begins with a comfortable shuttle ride to the Myra Canyon trailhead, where your expert guide will provide you with a premium mountain bike fitted to your specifications and a safety briefing.

As you begin pedaling along the well-maintained gravel pathway, you'll be immediately struck by the incredible vistas of the Okanagan Valley stretching out below. The relatively flat 24-kilometer round-trip route is suitable for cyclists of all abilities, allowing you to focus on the breathtaking scenery rather than technical challenges. The true highlights of this journey are the 18 wooden trestle bridges and 2 tunnels that you'll traverse—each offering a unique perspective and photo opportunity.

Throughout the ride, your knowledgeable guide will share fascinating stories about the railway's construction, the devastating 2003 wildfire that damaged several trestles, and the remarkable restoration efforts that followed. Learn about the region's geology, ecosystem, and the important role the railway played in developing the Okanagan Valley.

Midway through your journey, you'll pause at a scenic viewpoint for a gourmet picnic lunch featuring locally-sourced ingredients and refreshing beverages. Take time to soak in the panoramic views and capture memorable photos before continuing your ride. The experience concludes with your return to the trailhead and a comfortable shuttle back to your accommodation, leaving you with lasting memories of this iconic Okanagan adventure.
