Ambitious A real undertaking. Demanding on a couple of fronts, like rough surfaces plus steady climbing, or a long stretch on busier 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.

The western half of the Kettle Valley Rail Trail links Hope to Summerland through Brookmere, Tulameen, Princeton, and Osprey Lake, with access points letting you ride anything from 26 km to the full 254. Quiet, historic rail grade through forest and riverside country, finishing in wine country. Be aware that parts of the corridor near the Coquihalla are currently closed or rough, so check current trail status before planning a through-ride.
We believe these are the fast, unprotected roads on this route. We can tell you which roads and roughly how far, but not the order you will ride them. If you see an error, tell us and we'll fix it.
