      The city of Calgary is split into 4 subregions on Trailforks, which follow the city quadrant boundaries. They are Northwest, Northeast, Southwest and Southeast.

      Calgary riding areas include 12 Mile Coulee, Bowmont, Eastlands and Nose Hill in the NW, Fish Creek Park in the SE/SW and a smattering of singletrack elsewhere in the city. Lift accessed riding is available at Canada Olympic Park.

      Trail maintenance in 12 Mile Coulee, Bowmont Park, and Fish Creek Park is handled by the Calgary Mountain Bike Alliance together with volunteers and the permission of the City of Calgary and Alberta Parks.

      Outside of Calgary, the Kananaskis Country area has hundreds of km of trails.
