We rode the Silver Triangle with John and Kootenay Cycling Adventures. Can’t say enough about how helpful John was plus he chose great hotels and restaurants and the snacks he provided en route were great. The route itself is a classic with incredible scenery, and mixture of challenging and less challenging climbs plus some exhilarating long downhills. Except between Nelson and the Balfour ferry, traffic is very light. You can rent bikes, we didn’t but the ones we saw were in great condition and appropriate for the conditions.
“Great Cycle Journey”
We had a great time with John and Kootenay Cycling Adventures. It was a challenging ride, well organised and John was a great guide. He made everything easy and went the extra mile to make our time on and off the bike a great experience.

“Cycling in the Kootenays!”
My husband and I had an amazing experience cycling in the Kootenays at the end of June. The weather was perfect, the air clean and fresh and the scenery was spectacular – wild flowers, snow capped mountains and a black bear! John had thought of everything and all the personal touches made this trip very memorable. They cycling is mostly main roads and the traffic was for the most part light and very respectful of cyclists. The best part was a quiet winding side road with gentle rolling hills, great scenery and farm stands along the way. This 3 day trip is ideal for a long weekend or tack on a few more days and enjoy the city of Nelson. A positive experience and a trip we will highly recommend to friends and family.
