We invented the "Biker's Discount" and most motorcyclists are still surprised to hear about it. Well, spread the word - it's 10% off at the Valhalla Inn.

And you couldn't find a better hub to do day trips out of. Just look at the map, we're perfectly situated for day loops. You can book your rooms, drop your bags, ride each day unhindered by extra weight and return to your home-away-from-home at the Valhalla Inn each night.

We've mapped out 5 day trips starting in New Denver and taking you over some of the best motorcycle roads in BC. And we've got the Destination Highways road ratings to prove it. If you don't know what Destination Highways is you will after reading this and you can visit their website through numerous links below.

Warm up with the Kokanee Glacier Leisure Tour, just to get in the mood. It's a 217 km trip starting in New Denver and circles the Kokanee Glacier through Kaslo, Ainsworth, Nelson, Crescent Valley and back up the Slocan Valley to New Denver. It takes you on Destination Highway Nos. DH5, DH25 and DH60. \

You can stop on the way for a relaxing dip in the hot springs pool at Ainsworth and then for lunch in Nelson at one of the charming sidewalk cafes.

The Selkirk Mountain Tour takes you through Kaslo, Creston, Salmo, Nelson and back to the Valhalla Inn. You'll ride 6 Destination Highways for a total tour distance of 385 km. Motorcycling just doesn't get any better than this. You've got a ferry crossing, the No. 1 rated highway in the province for motorbiking and a mountain pass.

Not enough km's you say? How about The Red Mountain Tour? It encompasses 448 km, 6 Destination Highways and some of the best scenery in the province. You'll loop through Castlegar, Rossland, Salmo, Creston and Kaslo before returning to the Valhalla Inn via the Valley of the Ghosts on Highway 31A. Link to video clips.

 

For the hardcore riders, we've got an even longer day tour. How about 530 km?? Is that enough riding for a day??? We call this tour The Monashee Mountain Tour. It's got 2 ferry crossings, the No. 2 rated highway for biking (and we've heard lots who say it's really the best), unbeatable scenery, unbelievable curves and 5 Destination Highways in all.

So you're a diehard. Just can't get enough kms in a day. Try the Big White Mountain Tour. You'll visit the Okanagan Valley and return to the Slocan Valley all in one day. The total riding distance is 685 km. That should be enough for just about anyone!!! You'll enjoy lakes, mountains, valleys, creeks, forests, and curves, curves, curves. Return at night for a good night's rest in a comfortable bed at the Valhalla Inn.
