Cruising Myra Canyon, Myra Canyon Provincial Park

Cruising Myra Canyon, Myra Canyon Provincial Park

Saddle up a sturdy mountain cruiser to cycle Myra Canyon Provincial Park. The scenic 24 kilometre (14.5 mile) roundtrip trail skirts 1,430 metres (4,100 feet) above Myra Canyon, along the highest section of the decommissioned Kettle Valley Railway. 18 wooden and steel trestles cling to the canyon walls providing inspired views of the craggy-faced canyon, Okanagan Lake and the city beyond.

Easy-to- navigate route is suitable for every fitness level, an ideal half-day group outing

Expand the trip into a full day experience cycling (mostly downhill) the full trail 74 kilometers (44 miles) from Kelowna to Narramata, concluding with a wine-paired picnic lunch at a local winery

Memories For The Making

The gravel access road to the canyon entrance is only part of the adventure

Breathe deep. The scent of a pine forest punctuates your winding ride across wooden trestles and through cool, dark caverns along the canyon walls

The group shot taken from astride the wooden trestles perfectly captures the raw beauty of this place.

Going for the gusto! Cycling the full length of the trail to Naramata, and being rewarded with lunch and a tasting in a boutique winery. Everyone snoozes on the chartered drive back to Kelowna

Best time to experience:

May to end of October
