        Hands down one of the most beautiful trails in the North Thompson Valley. A natural, flowy perfection that winds its way through mossy and lush old growth temperate rain-forest. Take your time and soak in the sights and smells. The...
        75 0.0 1 mile 14 ft 8
        A Blue River classic that needs to be ridden at least once. Technically a green double-track trail that can easily be enjoyed by beginners, but will offer some fun to more advanced riders too. The highlight of the trail is the super...

        90 4.0 2,001 ft 0 ft 5
        Raw, rooty and loamy old school fun. While it is sometimes ridden in reverse direction for some good old lung-bursting cardio, if looking to get loose and rowdy on a downhill, it is recommended you ride it in the North-to-South...

        Old moto trail that has recently been partially rehabilitated. Still quite raw and janky, with a combination of tight corners and punchy climbs, rewarded by loamy downhills. All neatly winding through lush, old growth temperate...
