Mountain bike adventure trips in the Kootenays

Imagine yourself in the spectacular backcountry of British Columbia: no crowds, no cars, just massive peaks, wild rivers and lots of deer, elk, bighorn sheep and moose to keep you company. Fernie, British Columbia offers some of the best mountain bike trails in the country and is quickly becoming known as the mountain biking capital of Canada. For single track enthusiasts, gorge yourself on some of the best singletrack this planet has to offer on our 8 day adventure. The Rocky Mountains are Canada's most spectacular mountain range, and the perfect backdrop for an incredible mountain bike adventure. This is our most popular trip for good reason: 7 days of blissful singletrack in the Canadian Rockies (plus 1 travel day), with accommodation at spectacular lodges and additional activities such as hot springs and optional paragliding. You'll experience the best singletrack the Rockies have to offer, in places like Fernie, Invermere, Golden and Kananaskis, including the world-renowned JumpingPound Ridge/Cox Hill ride on the final day, which is guaranteed to stay permanently etched into your memory!
