Spring, Fall, Summer

Airport Way

32km Round Trip

Dust off the cobwebs on a mellow ride along Airport Way. Cruise along the east side of the Columbia River, enjoying stunning views of the Monashee Mountains, including Revelstoke’s iconic Mount Begbie. It's a beautiful pedal with little elevation gain and minimal traffic once you get out past the airport.

Meadows In the Sky Parkway

1500m Elevation | 26km One Way

Located within Mount Revelstoke National Park, this iconic road takes cyclists on a challenging climb to the summit. Enjoy breathtaking vistas of alpine meadows, towering peaks, and the Columbia River Valley as you pedal your way up.

26 km paved climb to Mount Revelstoke’s 2,000m summit begins at the Revelstoke Railway Museum. From there, you will bike through the world’s only inland temperate rainforest, past old-growth stands of cedar and hemlock, and culminates in stunning wildflower meadows – from the glacier lilies and marsh marigolds of early summer to the red Indian paintbrush, yellow arnica and purple lupine that leave the fields awash in colour by August.

Highway 23 South

52km One Way

A paved highway takes you along the west side of the Columbia River valley, with the towering Selkirk and Monashee mountain ranges on either side. The highway is quiet except for ferry traffic, which passes by every hour. At the terminus (Shelter Bay Ferry Terminal), Shelter Bay Provincial Park offers camping and a place to jump in the Upper Arrow Lake. An ideal choice for a scenic and moderately challenging ride.

Highway 23 N

150km One Way

Highway 23 North used to be a rough dirt road that was part of the Trans-Canada Highway. In the early-60s, the TCH was routed through Rogers Pass, but the road was kept open and eventually paved to facilitate the construction of the Mica Dam. Today, it is 150 kilometers of paved bliss, with almost no traffic to speak of and amazing views the whole way. Numerous short climbs and descents will get the legs pumping and the adrenaline flowing. There are a number of recreation sites along the way, making for great spots to have a break and cool off in Lake Revelstoke.
