KVR Recreation Trail is the Cycling Family’s Dream.

The Hoodoo Ranch offers guests a convenient Water Front Campground as a starting point for an amazing bike ride through the Ranch along the Old Kettle Valley Railroad. The rail bed is a modest 2.2% grade making it a family friendly ride. The route meanders along the Nicola River through canyon tunnels, past geological formations on its way to Merritt. Enjoy a swim in the river at its many swimming holes or take some time to enjoy a little fishing or have a picnic.

Mountain Bikers Paradise Trail

Starting from the Hoodoo Ranch Campground, mountain biking enthusiasts enjoy a rigorous work out, climbing from the Nicola River valley bottom, through the Ranch to Soap Lake Ecological Reserve at the apex of the mountain. The incredible views are a photographers dream. The many plateaus on route offer vantage points to views of the Nicola River Valley to Spences Bridge and Merritt, and the Thompson River Valley towards Ashcroft. Many guests have had the opportunity to photograph deer, eagles, and coyotes and even caught a glimpse of the wild horses that roam the mountains over looking the Ranch.
