Slocan Valley, North Okanagan Route
Distance: 1340.4 Km / 835.1 Mi Duration: 16:41:38
This is a two day ride and you can pick your own stopping point. As usual this ride will begin at Mountainview Harley Davidson and head up the Freeway to Hope and from there it's the scenic Hope-Princeton Highway. Follow Highway 3 through the South Okanagan up to Castlegar and then head up through the Slocan Valley and back down the Arrow Lakes and then head over to Vernon in the North Okanagan and then to Kamloops, from there we head down the secondary highway to Merritt and then over to Spences Bridge and back down the Fraser Canyon to Hope and finish the ride on the Freeway back to the dealership.

@frencholive This is a route I hope to do this summer. I will probably do it in reverse order and stay in Fauguier on the east side of the Arrow Lake. There is a little cable ferry that goes from Needles to Fauquier and it runs 24/7. There is a small hotel in Fauquier. A morning start up to Nakusp for breakfast and fuel and then through the rest of the ride. It could even be 3 days if you wanted to stop and explore anywhere along the route. Manning Park is a great park with tons of camping and a great lodge. Tons of hiking and a trip up to the subalpine meadows can be breathtaking.
Almost all of the rides I put up yesterday are ones I want to do but I have done bits of all of them. Work was very slow so I was just playing and dreaming.

@kiltedcyclon Do you do this ride in a day, or stay in Castlegar or Nelson? That's a whole lot of stunning scenery.
