FERNIE
SMALL TOWN. LEGENDARY SNOW.
Fernie is known for its legendary snowfall, extensive groomed trail network and five distinct riding areas that offer everything from family-friendly trail days to technical trees, rolling meadows and steep alpine terrain.
Coal Creek and Morrissey put some of Fernie’s best-known riding just minutes from downtown, while Corbin opens up another side of the destination entirely. There’s a remarkable amount of terrain packed into this little corner of the Rockies — whether you’re looking for an easy day on the trails or somewhere to disappear into the mountains.
And the riding is only part of the reason to come. Add a vibrant historic downtown, great food, local breweries and a mountain culture that runs deep, and Fernie becomes a pretty easy place to stay for another day.

STAY A LITTLE LONGER
GOOD RIDES HAVE A WAY OF TURNING INTO GOOD NIGHTS.
A good Fernie weekend tends to gather a little momentum. Join a club event on the snow, find a sledder-friendly place to land, then carry the day downtown for good food, local beer and whatever comes next.
