SaveAt the North end of the Cariboo, the riding in Quesnel offers a different landscape and experience than found in nearby riding areas. The rocky single track leans towards a more technical style with a built experience to link trails of increasing skill level. Not everything in Quesnel is technical; all three riding areas have machine built flow trails that are friendly for all riders, regardless of skill level. Put Quesnel on your list of riding destinations, it’s hard to access Northern BC riding without a stop here
