All natural, all fun. Forests to slabs a little bit of everything. Trail crosses two areas of private property. Please stay on the trail and keep dogs under control as there is livestock in the area. Thanks to Vaagen Fibre Canada and the Russell family for supporting access through their private lands.

Access Info

Head up Second Relief Road by the Selkirk Motel, west of Salmo. At ~2.5km there is a gated road, a few hundred meters after a tight corner. Duck under the gate and you are now on Vaagen Fibre Canada private property. Signage will direct you onto a spur road about 300m along on your right and bring you to the entrance to the trail, also on your right, after another 700m pedal.
