Kettle Mettle Dirty Fondo

We are excited to welcome you to the Okanagan on September 15th/16th for the 8th annual Kettle Mettle Gravel Fondo. This event holds its title as the oldest Gravel Fondo in Western Canada.

Situated in the stunning Okanagan Valley, our course carves its way through wildflower-blanketed canyons, historic trestles, and shaded decommissioned railway tunnels. You can expect panoramic views of crystal clear lakes as you climb and descend the sweeping switchbacks of the Kettle Valley Rail Trail.

Although the one-day 138+ km Full Fondo Plus distance is still our marquee event. We are also offering a 50km Medio and 100km Full Fondo distances. In addition to our one-day event, we are excited to be brining back the two-day stage race.
