Lakeshore South

Challenging Demanding on several fronts at once, or a lot of riding on busy roads.

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.

How we describe routes →

Lakeshore South in Kelowna stretches from an easy waterfront roll to a genuinely hilly 30 km out-and-back. The further you go, the wilder it gets: quiet forest, lake views, and upper stretches that turn rough and steep enough to feel like a real workout. Pick your distance to match your day.
