Williams Lake
Discover the Shangri-La of Mountain Biking
You might be surprised to know that Willliams Lake has over 200 km (124 mi) of singletrack trails within the city limits and 100 km (62 mi) of trail within a half-hour drive from town. It's no wonder BIKE Magazine called Williams Lake “the Shangri-La of mountain biking” in North America.
Riders won't find a “locals only” attitude here, with accommodation options for every budget and legendary watering holes. Curious bikers will quickly discover why Williams Lake’s beginner double-track, epic cross-country, and steep and gnarly downhills are trip-worthy.
