Tour de Somewhere Out West!

Near Nakusp on Tour de Somewhere Out WestOkanagan and Kootenays bicycle tour in southern British Columbia (BC Rockies)

We used to run this trip as a two week guided adventure through British Columbia's Monashee and Selkirk mountains. Now, you can try this trip on your own, drawing on the experiences of those who toured this route previously. This route winds through the heart of BC's fruit and wine region then travels through stunning mountain scenery and lakeside riding.

You'll find award winning wineries, breweries, and orchards - clear mountain lakes, sparkling creeks, fresh forests and HOT hot springs! Sail on ferries, climb mountain passes (and fly down the other side!) and meander through valleys.
