Midway — Rock Creek - BC Rail Trails

18.8 Km

Discover Boundary Country by taking a nice ride along the banks of the Kettle River. Before leaving Midway, you can check out the historical Kettle River Museum. There’s nothing quite like stepping back into history and discovering what the KVR used to look like. Throughout this ride from Midway down to Rock Creek, you’ll be enclosed by trees in a small valley, a real backwoods BC experience. The river is full of bends and curves, perfect for a quick dip to cool off. Or, if you’re feeling adventurous, you can combine a bike ride with a river float. Be sure to keep your eyes open for wildlife and unique agriculture along the way!
