Rail Trail
Follow this Kettle Valley Rail bed all the way to Summerland. Along the way expect to pass through beautiful forests and past pristine mountain lakes. After you have traveled 53 km you will come across the old train community of Bankier. From here travel another 42 km to the town of Summerland. The section of track from Summerland south to Trout Creek has been recreated and has a replica KVR passenger train that runs in the summer months. The trail has been improved with 4 new bridges in 2006.

I did some hiking along the Rail Trail near Bankier. Good for short distance connections to places. A few identifying markers along the way.
