E-Biking Epic Myra Canyon Trestles Kelowna | E47 #railtrails #kvr #kettlevalleyrailtrail #kelowna

Come along on our E-Bike adventure for an inspiring half-day trip thru Myra Canyon. This highly scenic portion of the Kettle Valley Railway (KVR) runs along a steep-walled canyon. Originally built by hand at the turn of the last century, this impressive landmark is highlighted by 2 tunnels and 18 trestle bridges that were built between 1912 and 1914 and are absolutely amazing! Since 1993, volunteers added boardwalks and side rails to the trestles; cleared fallen trees, boulders and brush from the trail; added storm shelters and benches; and provided information to visitors. Following the devastating 2003 fires, along with BC Parks, volunteers managed the rebuilding of the 12 burnt wooden trestles and 2 damaged steel trestles, with funding by the Governments of BC and Canada. Myra Canyon is located 24KM from downtown Kelowna about a 40 minute drive and has two access points, the most popular is at Myra Station complete with parking pit toilets and Myra Canyon Bike Rentals.
