Fatbiking
Fernie ’ s coolest winter activity – Fatbiking – takes you along groomed multi-use trails through the trees and up to viewpoints , if you ’ re up for the challenge ! Bring your own fatbike or rent or buy one at local bike shops and just go . If you can mountain bike you can fatbike , though it doesn ’ t take much to get a sweat on , even in -10c temperatures . Read the Fatbiking 101 blog on our website .
A diversity of trails cater to this great activity . For beginners , practice along the Town Loop then progress to the Inclusive Trail up to Montane Hut . For the more experienced try the new Montane Blue , Lower Ridgemont or Fernie Alpine Resort . More advanced options include Phat Bastard , Mushroom and Red Sonya , Upper Ridgemont or CONTRA .
Learn-to-fatbike and guided tours are offered at Fernie Alpine Resort on the daily-groomed multiuse forest trails and on community trails with RideTheory . Pick up the Winter Trail Map before you go or use the Trailforks App .
