Mountain Biking Guide
Revelstoke is quickly developing a reputation for world class mountain biking.
With well-developed cross country trail networks, shuttle-accessed downhill on both sides of the valley, and easy access to epic alpine trails, it's easy to see why more mountain bikers are placing our beautiful town on their 'must-do' list.

XC & All Mountain Biking
Looking for a great workout, a fun flow trail, a techy challenge, or an elevated experience?
Mt. Macpherson offers a well-developed mountain biking network catering to all ability levels just 5 minutes from town in the Monashee Mountains. Cross the Columbia River and take Highway 23 South - trails are available from Flowdown, Griffith Creek, Mt. Macpherson, and Begbie Falls parking lots.
Mount Revelstoke National Park offers biking in the Selkirks on the east side of the valley - including a fun loop on the 2k and 5k trails, accessible via a paved climb from town behind the Railway Museum.
Mt. Mackenzie, location of Revelstoke Mountain Resort, has additional intermediate and advanced trails accessible from Revelation Lodge including Big Easy, Fault Line, and Crowbar.
Feeling more ambitious? Cruise to the alpine and experience one of Revelstoke's XC epics, including Frisby Ridge and Keystone Standard Basin.
Downhill Mountain Biking
If you dream of roots, rocks, jumps, and gnar, Revelstoke's downhill trails are some of the best in the world.
Boulder Mountain is the biggest DH network in the area, and trails are a short shuttle ride from town. Trails vary from ungroomed tech to flow with built features.
Blanket Creek is an opportunity to get off the beaten track and try out something a little different. The steep rock-slab riding is unlike anything else in the area!
Sale Mountain is the location of the famous Martha Creek Trail; a 5000 foot descent transitioning from open alpine to steep, loamy lines in the interior rainforest below.
