Three Blind Mice Trail Network

The Three Blind Mice trail network spreads across the benchland above Penticton toward Naramata, overlooking Okanagan Lake, and is the South Okanagan’s best-known mountain-bike area: Visit Penticton counts more than 80 trails, and trail-mapping sites chart over 100 of them, winding through ponderosa pine, rock bluffs and grassland from intermediate singletrack to expert technical lines. The core of the network is a City of Penticton natural park at 1400 Riddle Road, and the Penticton and Area Cycling Association looks after the trails. Riders commonly start from the Poplar Grove parking area off Naramata Road; parking costs are not published. Close by, beside the KVR Trail at 1194 Poplar Grove Road, the City’s asphalt pump track gives riders of all ages a loop of rollers and berms to practise on. Trail signage is limited, so carry a trail app, and note that no official e-bike or dog rules are published for the network.
