Great views, bike not needed but you can see more of the trail with a bike. Hiked in to the first trestle (about 1KM or 1/2 mile) and views of the forest, valley, Kelowna are very nice and peaceful (on a Tuesday). Saw others reviews complaining about the road to the trail head. Really? There were probably 50 vehicles at the trail head when we arrived from micro cars to pickup trucks. The road is not that bad.
Rental bikes starting at $50 per 4 hours seems excessive.
My favorite outdoor activity in Kelowna. Spectacular scenery to see thanks to community built/maintained infrastructure. The history of this 10km old railway line is almost as interesting as the route, which is almost flat. Bike rentals are easy and worth the price.
The high ratings are totally accurate. We walked for 6.5 km and then turned around. It took us 2.5 hours. Magnificent. Don’t miss this. And it’s FREE!
Visited Myra Canyon recently on bikes that we rented from Myra Canyon Bicycle Rental and Tours. Bikes can be booked online in advance and collected from the east entrance to the canyon. We had a group of 4 including seniors and the ride was easy and mostly flat, and comfortable for all levels of experience. Beautiful views and many opportunities to stop for a photoshoot. We were going very slowly and stopped a lot on the way back, and the tour took less than 3 hours. The trail is also used by hikers. It was quite busy when we were there in early August. Highly recommend this part of the KVR trail and the bike rentals themselves.
Loved the walk along the Myra Canyon Park. Didn’t quite make it to the end - but close. Fantastic to see the work that was done to restore the trestles after the fire - well done to all concerned. The views on the walk were stunning and if you don’t fancy the walk you can hire a bike.
