The Kettle Valley Rail Trail made the list of course. Come experience the ride July 4, 2021. www.okanagantrestlestour.com (80 km from Myra Canyon to Penticton) The most impressive of British Columbia’s Trail offerings, the 401-kilometre Kettle Valley Rail Trail is a historic route on the 1915 railway once used to move silver ore from mountains to coast. What’s amazing is the engineering used to bring the train through the mountains and over the river gorges. Look closely at the numerous trestles and delve into the cool tunnels. The route goes from Brookemere to Midway, but the most amazing section is the 12-kilometre Kelowna-Myra Canyon cliff-hanger a national historic site with canyon views from 18 gorge-spanning trestles.

The threatened Columbia and Western Rail Trail is a high value asset as a destination rail trail for low-carbon recreation and tourism. It also serves as an im...portant conservation greenway corridor for wildlife. Combined with the rest of the KVR Rail Trail, the long distance trail is almost 650 kms. We need rail trail defenders to ask for Government to properly fund and manage the KVR Rail Trail that extends from Hope to Castlegar as a linear greenway or linear Provincial Park, not continue as a motorized corridor nor be used as roadways.. This route should be an active transportation route across southern interior British Columbia, safe from vehicle traffic. Please write to your MLA and other politicians to tell them that 67 km of the Columbia and Western Rail Trail doesn't need to be amputated for a roadway. These threatened BC Rail Trails need to be properly funded and managed as a long distance active recreational and transportation rail trails as they were always intended to be.
