A cool, dry wind meets your face as the van drops you at the trailhead and the wooden trestles of Myra Canyon stretch ahead — old railway timbers lifting you above carved canyon walls and sun-bright sagebrush. The first pedal strokes feel easy: the Kettle Valley Railway grade was built for trains, so the 24 km route across 18 trestles and through two tunnels rolls steadily, framing wide views of Kelowna, Okanagan Lake, and cedar-draped slopes.

A cool, dry wind meets your face as the van drops you at the trailhead and the wooden trestles of Myra Canyon stretch ahead — old railway timbers lifting you above carved canyon walls and sun-bright sagebrush. The first pedal strokes feel easy: the Kettle Valley Railway grade was built for trains, so the 24 km route across 18 trestles and through two tunnels rolls steadily, framing wide views of Kelowna, Okanagan Lake, and cedar-draped slopes.
The line was completed in the early 20th century to connect interior towns; its trestles survived storms and was later restored as a recreational corridor that tells stories of railway engineering and local settlement. The canyon sits on steep, glaciated bedrock and glows copper in late afternoon; the trail cuts through exposed slopes, ponderosa patches, and stands where pollinator plants feed vineyard rows below.
After the ride the guide drives you to Meadow Vista Honey Wines for lunch and then to a curated set of wineries — tasting fees included — sampling small-production whites, rosés, and experimental reds that reflect Okanagan soils and warm, dry summers.
Practical notes: expect about 24 km of mostly flat, compacted gravel; moderate fitness and confident bike handling on narrow trestles are required. Helmets and bottled water are provided; e-bike options are available for easier climbs. Pickup from Kelowna or West Kelowna is included; tours require a minimum of four guests and are non-refundable. Time your visit for morning light on the trestles and an afternoon of relaxed tastings — carry sunscreen, layers, and cash or card for lunch.
The Myra Canyon rail trail section is about 24 km round-trip, crossing 18 trestles and two tunnels; expect several hours including photo stops.
