ENDURANCE LOOP: 15 km (mix of single and double track)
• This trail provides a variety of single track, technical trail features
and downhill sections. It is best ridden in a clockwise direction to
take advantage of the long downhill section from Odyssey.
• A section of the Endurance loop that is also accessed from the
Orange loop is called Odyssey. This is a fun section of trail that
has great flow with a lot of downhill.
• Access from the Daylodge, begin on Centennial ski trail

ORANGE LOOP: 7.5 km (mainly single track)
• The CNC’s most popular trail.
• Best ridden clockwise – a steady climb starts the trail, followed
by a descent through the meadow, some technical downhill
sections, then moderate elevation gain back to the Daylodge.
• Access: From the Daylodge, follow “flag row” to the paved
Banff Trail. Bike along the Banff Trail for approximately 40
metres until the orange trail marker on the left hand side
