Weekend Adventure Packages
Our weekend packages at WildWays in Christina Lake, BC feature biking and kayaking in some of the most spectacular recreational areas   of this Province. Our kayaking is on the warmest tree-lined lake in Canada and its' tributary Christina Creek, while our biking trips are based on the scenic Kettle Valley Railway, the choicest part of the Trans Canada Trail. We also offer "Women Only" weekends where all activities are designed with a woman's needs in mind. It's a great combination of "Adventure by day, Comfort by night".

Our accommodations at Christina Lake feature clean, modern Queen & King rooms and cottages with ensuite facilities, all close to the Lake. Breakfast, brunch and evening meals are shared in several of our local restaurants, which offer delicious and varied cuisine. Our weekend tours are small with no more than twelve people. Most activities are close by and shuttle service is provided as part of our packages. If you'd like to book a shuttle at another time, please call or e-mail us at info@wildways.com. As always, our guides are top notch and trained in all aspects of safety and personal attention.

Day One (Fri): Arrive at Christina Lake (evening)

Plan to arrive at Christina Lake for our evening orientation time after dinner. We will meet at our retail outlet and tour centre, located on Highway 3. Enjoy complimentary beverages while we go over the weekend and begin the adventure.


Day Two (Sat):
Biking The Kettle Valley Railway to Cascade Gorge
After breakfast, we head to the old town site of Eholt in the cool of the morning and begin biking with a slow descent toward Grand Forks, BC with its unique Russian heritage. We’ll stop for lunch at the Station Pub, a restored CPR Train Station featuring excellent cuisine.

After lunch, a gentle ride along the banks of the beautiful Kettle River will take us back to Christina Lake. The new trail surface here is the smoothest in the province, and the elevation is almost flat, making it perfect for a day of riding.

Just before the end of the ride, we'll stop at Cascade Gorge where the scenery is simply spectacular. A short trail walk will take us to Rainbow Rock for the best view of The Falls. Here you'll definitely want to bring your camera! A long gentle descent into Christina Lake is the perfect ending for this memorable day of activities.

The day unwinds with a lakeside dinner of locally produced artisan foods and a campfire on the beach. Our women's only tours feature a range of optional spa treatments in the evening.

Day Three (Sun):
   Today we'll start the day a little later, with a superb brunch at Jimmy Beans Bistro. The food is mouth watering and there's lots of it, with continual steaming cups of coffee and Lattes to enjoy.
   The day is set for something completely different; a little kayaking anyone? We will begin by some easy paddling on Christina Lake in our user-friendly kayaks. This is something everyone but the very youngest child can do, and we will teach you all you need to know to enjoy this fastest-growing water sport. We then will venture down Christina Creek, a beautiful meandering stream with wild iris, sunturtles and lots of waterfowl. It is a magical place, a world apart from all the hustle and bustle of everyday life. No previous kayaking experience needed, and we supply all the gear.

   We return to our accommodations tired but fulfilled, having tasted some of the best forms of recreation there are. As we unwind by the fireside or stroll along the lakeshore, we know that this has been a very different kind of weekend, one which we'll never forget. After a final feast, its time to pack up and say Good-Bye, with a few new muscles we've become aware of on our bodies , and some great stories to tell at the office.

   And we wonder while driving home, why don't we do something like this every weekend?
