The Okanagan Rail Trail was created by converting a decommissioned railway track into a multi-use pathway. Sept. 27, 2018 was the official opening date for the majority of the trail - including nearly 14 kilometres of trail in Kelowna from Ellis Street to Old Vernon Road. Once completed, the Okanagan Rail Trail will span 49.5 km from Coldstream to Kelowna's downtown.
