Old school narrow XC trail that affords excellent views of Lake Osoyoos and the town. Mostly non technical, it has some sustained climbs to get that heart pumping Meandering through the sage and antelope, this trail has little shade and is best ridden in Spring, Fall and even the Winter between snow falls. Trail is amazing for Summer night rides but not recommended in the hot hot heat of the day.

Excellent as a there and back but more fun riding Northward. Awesome for trail running and hiking! Bikers please give right of way. The very South end of the trail can be a bit difficult to follow.

Access Info

Access from the parking area near the Osoyoos Gun Range on the North end or off Fairwinds Drive on the South end. Link the Upside Down trail for even more fun
