Kelowna has the most extensive bike path network in Canada, for a city of 110,000. With over 220 kilometres of bike lanes cyclists can travel all over the city. Bike racks on buses mean the options expand even more. Add to that bike racks and bike lockers that are popping up around the city, and you’ve got one bike-friendly community.
If adventure is what you are looking for, try tackling the Kettle Valley Railway (KVR), an abandoned railway bed that winds through south central British Columbia between Midway and Hope. It is after all a typical railway bed with grades that never exceed 2.2 %. But even the most radical mountain biker will grip the handle bars a little tighter crossing trestles hanging precariously on the sides of Myra Canyon. With countless trestles and tunnels, and environs ranging from cool mountain forests to Canada's only pocket desert the 600 km route offers an endless diversity of experiences.
