| Kettle
Valley Railway Cycle Tour Midway was to become the starting point of my solo cycling trip that would span over three mountain ranges, and huge trestles, through vast forests, and inky black tunnels, across the Okanagan Valley, sometimes requiring sloshing in rivers due to missing bridges, watching out for wild animals, steep drop-offs from canyon walls, and all the while sweating the 30c+ daytime temperatures. |

Dipper Hideaway , B&B and Campground Lots of Cyclists know already of the Campground and find it's location not quite right for the distance from Rock Creek. With the B&B however, we think that we are filling a need for quality accommodation and are the perfect distance from Midway, where a lot of cyclists start out. If I forgot to mention it before, we will serve dinner upon request. Also, we are excited to announce, that we'll be installing a hot tub later this spring. What could be better, than to relax your trail weary bones in the hot water of an outdoor hot tub. |
