KELOWNA - Recent rain and cooler temperatures have reduced the fire hazard on Knox Mountain.
As a result, Knox Mountain Drive will fully open this morning, with the exception of Sunday, Sept. 11, when the road will be closed until 2 p.m. to accommodate the School of Hard Knox cycling race.
Knox Mountain Drive is open to vehicles 9:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday to Saturday, and noon to 9 p.m. on Sundays. Knox Mountain Park is open daily between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m.
