Fur Brigade Trail

A ride described in Let's Go Biking

How we describe routes →

Moderate One step up. Some real climbing, or a rougher surface.

Difficulty Our overall read of how demanding a route is. We score surface roughness, climbing, singletrack, and how far it runs from services. The route publisher's own rating, a lot of busy road riding, or sheer scale can push the tier up, never down.

Derived from OpenStreetMap. Good data, not perfect. Spot something wrong? Tell us.

How we describe routes →

An out-and-back on the historic Fur Brigade Trail, the old Hudson's Bay Company route between Summerland and Peachland. Ride 4 km or the full 43, climbing quietly through forest to big views, with wildlife common along the way. Partly gravel, and steeper than the average rail trail: this was a pack trail, not a train line.
