A lot of visitors from North America, Europe and Asia do this ride either on their own or as part of an organized ride. Google KVR and you will find lots of info. It makes for a fantastic trip for either a weekend or a couple of weeks, depending on how much time you have.

Getting there
You can pick up this trail at several points as it goes across Southern BC following an abandoned railway line. My suggested route is to start at Beaverdell follow the route to near Kelowna and crossing the now rebuilt (from fire in '03) seven railway trestles in Myra Canyon. Continue along to Penticton, Princeton and finish in Hope. There are other options to take. There are guidebooks and maps for this ride.

Rider questions

Q: where is there drinking water along the trail?
A: let me amend that a bit. There is a halfway point which may or may not be open that is a cafe. There is also a lake, your choice to drink from that or not.
