Where small town charm meets adventure in the heart of the Canadian Rocky Mountains.
Fernie is a historic mountain town founded in 1898. Fernie is located in southeast British Columbia, Canada and is completely surrounded by the Canadian Rocky Mountains. With an extensive and ever-growing number of trails you will no doubt find your perfect ride in Fernie; most you can access right from town.
Mountain biking has become a year-round sport in Fernie with the addition of fat biking during the snowy months. April/May is the start of mountain bike season and goes right to the end of October, then fat (snow) biking starts in November until end of March. Explore Fernie's 110+ trails - primarily singletrack, in summer play at the Dirt Jump & Skills Park or head to Fernie Alpine Resort's Lift Access Bike Park.
