The Upper Campbell Loop is a well-rounded journey for those who appreciate variety in their ride. Starting from Campbell River, you'll find yourself on a mix of trail and gravel surfaces, covering half of the route each. The ride is gently rolling as you navigate the forested paths around the serene lakeside, with a few manageable climbs amounting to 899m (2950ft) of elevation gain. The occasional paved stretch gives you a nice break, and the quiet, remote nature of the loop is sure to make this an introspective ride.
