Phase 1
The City of Penticton is developing a KVR Trail Strategy to shape the future of the Kettle Valley Rail Trail through Penticton. This plan will guide how the trail is improved, celebrated, and better connected to support recreation, transportation, tourism, and community wellbeing.

Identify key improvements for trail infrastructure and access
Explore ideas for wayfinding, amenities, and safety
Highlight opportunities for community events, storytelling, and heritage
Consider how the trail connects across neighbourhoods, nature, and culture
Provide an action plan for future investment and stewardship
