ÁðÁ§ÉñÉç: Myra Canyon’s spectacular views will take your breath away

Stunning network of former railway trestles make for a fantastic family-friendly day hike

The Kettle Valley Railway is an historic railway that has been converted to a series of hiking and biking trails in Southern British Columbia, and at nearly 650-kilometres long, it’s the longest trail network in the province.

The network extends in one form or another from Castlegar to Hope, but one of its favourite launch points and day trip destinations is the spectacular Myra-Bellevue Provincial Park.

When the railway was built, it was an engineering feat, with train trestles spanning hundreds of gorges and chasms and tunnels piercing through mountains over its extensive route.

The Myra Canyon area features some 18 trestles, which provide stunning views of the Okanagan Valley.

At less than a three-percent grade, the railway’s gravel surface is excellent for mountain biking with the family.

Although Myra-Bellevue Provincial Park was temporarily closed during the COVID-19 crisis, you’ll want to when planning your future trip. In addition, has more information on the entire Kettle Valley Railway network.
