Activities
Getting there
Leaving Kamloops, travel north on Highway 5 (Yellowhead Hwy) to the intersection with Paul Lake Road.
Turn onto the Paul Lake road and travel for approximately 20 minutes to the first fork in the road. Take the right fork (Paul Lake Road). The road will shortly fork again. Stay right and continue travelling on the Paul Lake Road. This will take you to the west side of Paul Lake. There is a parking area where you can park your pick-up vehicle (for shuttling). Continue up the road then keep right at the next fork, turning onto a gravel road. Follow this road for approximately 5kms, passing a paintball staging area. At the crest of the hill you will find a road on the right. Turn and follow this road along the powerline until you come to the only road turning left. Follow this road, noticing that the bike trails cross it several times. Park at the end of the road and begin your ride!
