Fat Biking
Fat Biking in the Copeland Forest
Fat bikes let riders explore the snowy trails of the Copeland Forest in a whole new way. Our 8.5-kilometre groomed loop is ideal for beginners and intermediate riders looking to experience winter adventure on two wheels. A valid trail pass is required and is not included with rental equipment. For safety and proper trail use, bikes must have full-fat tires measuring at least 3.8 inches wide — mid-fat and narrower tires aren’t permitted.
If walking to/from the Nordic Centre, please use the pedestrian tunnel under Horseshoe Valley Road. For your safety, please do not walk across the road.
