Fernie Alpine Bike Park
Fernie Alpine Resort is one of North America’s longest-running lift-accessed mountain bike destinations, combining gravity-fed downhill riding with Fernie’s extensive network of cross-country and all-mountain trails.
Machine-built flow trails offer progression for beginner and intermediate riders, while steep, technical singletrack and downhill trails challenge advanced and expert bikers. Located just west of Fernie on Highway 3, the bike park is an easy road-trip destination from Calgary, Montana, and Idaho.
Fernie Bike Park is located in Qukin ʔamakʔis, the unceded traditional territory of Yaq̓it ʔa·knuqⱡi’it who part of the Ktunaxa Nation.
