ORIGINAL STORY

A portion of the Okanagan Rail Trail will soon be closed for 10 days.

The section from Kickwillie Loop Road to Kekuli Bay Provincial Park will be shut down from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays from Sept. 5-15 to allow for rockfall mitigation work.

The section will be open and accessible all day on weekends, and after 5 p.m. weekdays.

A detour route will be available throughout the work via the Kal Crystal Waters Trail. Those planning on using the detour route are advised that the Kal Crystal Waters Trail has steeper grades than the Okanagan Rail Trail and is, therefore, more challenging.
