Sacred Rides

Check-in at the lodge is from 6:00 pm onwards, and our representatives will be waiting to greet you. There are several restaurants in Fernie serving excellent food.

We'll spend the first morning doing basic skills such as bike handling, proper braking technique, gear shifting, and breaking up into different skill level groups. After skills training, we'll head back to the lodge for a hearty homemade lunch on the deck of our lodge. After taking some time to digest, we'll head out to the trails for a full afternoon of riding to test out some of our new skills. After riding for several hours, we'll return to the lodge and if the weather permits, we'll take in some additional activities such as swimming in the nearby Elk River before heading out to a local restaurant for dinner.

n.b. dinner is not included in the trip price.

After breakfast, we'll spend the morning working on more skills at Fernie's brand-new skills course. After a full morning of riding, we'll stop for lunch and fuel up for a big afternoon of biking. We'll ride to Ridgemont, ground zero for the Fernie mountain biking scene. There are dozens of trails fanning out from the fire road access, which can be linked up, and we'll pick and choose the best ones, such as 'Kid's Stuff' (an introduction to technical stunt riding with small stunts very close to the ground), 'Splitting Bears' and 'Eric's Trail' (a great descent). We'll finish riding at 5 pm to give you ample time to return to Calgary or wherever else you may be coming from.

n.b. Extra nights at our lodge can be purchased for $90(Cdn)/night/pp
