Watch For Grand Opening Celebration Soon
Peachland, B.C. – Peachland’s new Multi-Use Pathway to West Kelowna is complete! Cyclists and pedestrians now have a safe connection to Goat’s Peak Park, thanks to funding from the BC Ministry of Transportation and the Federal Ministry of Intergovernmental Affairs.
The trail is open to the public, with a grand opening celebration to be announced soon. Construction of the Peachland to Goat’s Peak Park Multi-Use Trail began in October 2024, funded with $776,000 from the BC Active Transportation Infrastructure Grants (BCAT) Program and $356,400 from the Federal Communities’ Active Transportation Fund of the Permanent Public Transit Program.
Park on Beach Avenue to access the trail via Buchanan Road and Robinson Place. The new constructed trail sections begin at Robinson Lane. It connects to Goat’s Peak Park near the Seclusion Bay Road underpass under Highway 97 near the boundary of Peachland and West Kelowna. It is made up of off-street multi-use pathways and a stretch of neighbourhood bikeway along Drought Road.
The trail ties into a planned 250km multi-purpose trail system that will span the Okanagan Valley. Three trail systems are close to connecting the communities from Sicamous in the North to Osoyoos in the south with the Shuswap North Okanagan Rail Trail, the Okanagan Rail Trail and The Trail of Okanagans. A fully connected trail system is expected to have a profound economic impact for the region and communities along the system and vault the trail system to one of international significance.
A Grand Opening Celebration will be held in the coming weeks; keep informed of upcoming events by subscribing to receive email notification from the District at www.peachland.ca/subscribe.
