Overview

Wandering Moose takes runners onto the trails of Myra Canyon Adventure Park above Kelowna, British Columbia, with 12km, 25km and 35km routes plus a short kids race. The courses wind through canyon country and open viewpoints over the Okanagan Valley, mixing packed singletrack with looser and rockier ground. Everyone starts and finishes at 4429 June Springs Rd, and the day is built around trail running, big views and a finish line worth celebrating.
