Built in late fall 2026 by Contour Trails in partnership with MTBco, FOSS and BC Parks, this beginner loop is designed to build skills and confidence. It does use some existing trails to make the loop.

Rock gardens introduce bike handling, small berms help develop cornering skills, and rollers encouraging bike-body separation. Small, rollable jumps let riders work toward getting their tires off the ground, while a set of tight uphill switchbacks offer practice on climbing corners.

A great loop for the littles, with enough variety to keep parents engaged with “just one more lap.” Expect a bit of climbing to earn the fun!

      First jump line was a blast, second and third offer no room to gain speed, so you have to pedal through, so no opportunity to hit the jumps for beginner/intermediate riders.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
