Downhill Mountain Biking

Boulder is specific to downhill mountain biking and offers awesome variety for any rider. From smooth, flowing intermediate trails, to more advanced singletrack; the trails are both fun and challenging. Technical trail features (wooden structures, jumps & drops) exist on some of the trails and should be spotted by riders before attempting. Suitable equipment and caution are recommended when riding these trails. These trails are provincial recreation trails operated by the Revelstoke Cycling Association in partnership with Recreation Sites and Trails BC.

Access from Revelstoke: - Head West on Hwy 1, right on Westside Rd- Trailhead is located 3km from the turn off from Hwy 1- Left on Jordan River FSR Road* Note: 4x4 is recommended for these logging roads. Please drive with caution as there are numerous spots where trails cross the road. It is the responsibility of the driver to travel at speeds that reflect road conditions.

More Difficult Very Difficult Extremely Difficult

A spectacular 1580m/9km descent from alpine meadows to valley bottom. The trail is equipped with low and mid-elevation access points for early and late season rides, and the option for a 5000ft climb up logging roads to the top. Technical trail features exist on this trail and should be spotted by riders before attempting. Suitable equipment and caution is recommended when riding this trail. This trail is managed by Recreation Sites and Trails BC. This trail is also ascended by hikers – please watch for oncoming hikers and slow down to yield.

Access from Revelstoke: - Head north on Hwy 23 – trailhead is located 21km from Hwy 1- Turn right on the Sale FSR and continue up the road for 15km* Note: 4x4 is mandatory for these logging roads. Please carry a radio with you when logging is active. Remember, it is the responsibility of the driver to travel at speeds that reflect the road conditions.

A beautiful trail with magnificent views, abundant wildflowers, and excellent riding. This 12.9km purpose-built cross country trail climbs from a cutblock up through impressive mountain hemlock sub-alpine forest, and into the alpine meadows. It crests on a rolling ridge with views in all directions, then dips down to a small lake and turns back. This is a provincial recreation trail operated by the RCA in partnership with Recreation Sites & Trails BC. *Note: This is a remote trail with no water access. You must be self-sustained. This trail is very susceptible to erosion, please consider an alternative trail in extremely wet conditions.

Access from Revelstoke: - Head west on Hwy 1- Turn right on Westside Rd- Trailhead is located 8km from Hwy 1 turn off - Left on Frisby Ridge Road - continue up 9km- Specifically from the start of the gravel road: 0.7km go left, 1.6km go right, 4km go left, 5.8km go left, 6.2km go right, 8.2km go left, 9km go left to parking area. -Riding from town to the trailhead adds 2+ hours and 800m/2500ft of climbing.*Note: 4x4 is recommended. Please remember that it is the responsibility of the driver to travel at speeds that reflect road conditions.

**Caribou Closure: The Frisby Ridge Trail is closed annually until July 15. By respecting the closure, you will be helping to protect Mountain Caribou. If you should see one of these endangered species, please keep your distance and do not disturb.

This trail offers a spectacular ride in the alpine meadows. If you time it just right, the flowers will be in full bloom. The usual turn around is 11km at the Standard Cabin. This trail is rated “intermediate” but it is more technically challenging than Frisby Ridge. This trail is managed by Recreation Sites and Trails BC. This trail is also ascended by hikers – please watch for oncoming hikers and slow down to yield.

Access from Revelstoke: - Head north on Hwy 23- Trailhead is located 50km from the Trans Canada Highway- Turn right on Keystone FSR road and continue up for 18km to the parking lot* Note: 4x4 is recommended for this logging road. Please remember that it is the responsibility of the driver to travel at speeds that reflect road conditions.

The first 2.5km of this trail to the lookout is a great early season cross country ride, as it is one of the first to melt out in the spring. This trail is rated very difficult past the lookout. The more adventurous can get a heli-drop at the summit or a guided heli tour for a 2000m/6500ft downhill descent. The hardiest of riders are riding/pushing to the summit. This trail is managed by Recreation Sites and Trails BC. This trail is also ascended by hikers – please watch for oncoming hikers and slow down to yield.
