Welcome to one of Canada's revered mountain-biking destinations. Fernie's bike park offers a substantial 40 km (24.9 mi) of legendary terrain for riders of all abilities. The 37 runs, accessed via two chairlifts, range from smooth and easy dirt tracks to epic, downhill single-track and slalom courses to screaming steeps and stunts – targeted to beginner, intermediate and advanced riders respectively.

The park's longest run, Megasaurus (Intermediate), accessed off the Timber Bowl high-speed quad, takes riders across the mountain face before descending into Deer Trail (Intermediate). High-speed jumps and berms can be found on Top Gun and Bin Logdin', or check out Phat Larry's for stunts. Beginners can cruise down Eville, or build their skills at the Mighty Moose Skills Park. Instruction is focused, with specialty women-only clinics as well as camps for kids ages 7–14. Check out the extreme riding at the Fernie Full Throttle Festival, August 24-26.
