This morning pick up your bike at EagleRider’s Kamloops location and embark on a most fantastic three days of riding. Take Hwy 97 over to Cache Creek, where you join Cariboo Hwy south towards Lytton, Canada’s “Rafting Capital”. From here you are riding the most picturesque Fraser Canyon Hwy all the way into to small town of Hope, nestled in the Cascade Mountains on the banks of Fraser River. Enter Hwy 3 east and ride over to Manning Park, today’s destination. Named for E.C. Manning, the park has rain forests on its west side and grassland slopes on its east. Between the two extremes lies a land of wild rivers, crystal lakes, towering peaks and alpine meadows that is brimming with recreational opportunities year-round. Overnight.

You journey continues east on Hwy 3, and you go to Princeton, your gateway to Similkameen Wine Country. The town and area are steeped in history, and you will find over 50 lakes within a radius of 30 miles here. Stick with Hwy 3 down to Osoyoos, Canada’s top summer holiday spot. Surrounded by scenic mountains, tranquil lake and lush orchards, Osoyoos offers a relaxing and beautiful getaway. From here, you are heading north and arrive in Oliver, the wine capital of Canada. From Oliver you continue a little further north to Penticton, located in the heart of B.C.’s wine country. Here, life moves a little slower, allowing ample time to admire spectacular views, inhale the sweet aroma of sagebrush, enjoy culinary excellence and friendly people. The charming lakeside community of Penticton is also famous for outstanding golf and outdoor adventure pursuits. Overnight.

Your ride through one of the most desirable locations in B.C., the Okanagan Valley, continues as you are heading north to Kelowna. You pass through spectacular backcountry and encounter orchards and vineyards, evidence of some of the best fruit-and vegetable growing land in the world. Dozens of parks surround Okanangan Lake – this is an outdoor playground where the only difficulty is deciding what to do with your time… Kelowna is the center of the fruit and vineyard region around Lake Okanagan – a third of all apples harvested in Canada come from here. The lake is also known for its legendary monster, the Ogopogo, a Loch Ness type beast. You stick with Hwy 97 and ride north via Vernon, a perfect holiday town with a vibrant downtown. Leaving Vernon, Hwy 97 will take you back all the way into Kamloops. Upon arrival it will be time to return your bike at EagleRider’s Kamloops location.
