The Kettle Valley Steam Railway showcases a unique part of the Okanagan’s and British Columbia’s history. Built during 1910- 1915, the KVR “Kootenay to Coast Connection” powered our pioneer fruit industry into world markets, transported our families on vacations and errands; created employment, hobos and stories that will be with us forever. The KVR operates throughout the summer months of mid May to mid October. Additional trains run for Easter, Mother's Day and Christmas holiday season starting mid December.

This family run cidery is located on an orchard that was once part of the land area nicknamed Millionaires’ Row. Using apples grown from this orchard, we carefully blend and create ciders that are uniquely crisp, clean and refreshing.
