Lake Minnewanka MTB, Adv, 32km, 200m, RoyScarisbrick (Saturday, September 19, 2026)

Sat, 19 Sep 2026 16:00:00 GMT

(Originally this event was planned as a ride-through from Ghost to dam but is now planned as an out and back.)

Meet at the Minnewanka dam area, we could ride in and out to the Rangers' cabin, but turn around at any point. The trail is scheduled to open September 15 after being closed all summer for bears.

The trail is moderately difficult with stream beds and washouts but they can be walked.

See https://www.trailforks.com/trails/minnewanka-929433/ for a description.

No e-bikes. We need to be able to carry our bikes in places on this route. Also, according to https://parks.canada.ca/pn-np/ab/banff/activ/cyclisme-biking/veloselectriques-ebikes e-bikes and pedal-assist bikes are not permitted on the Minnewanka trail.

I have this place in Canal Flats booked from September 21-26. There is good mountain biking up and down the Columbia Valley but a big attraction to the area for me is the beach park at Tilley Memorial Park for paddleboards, kayaks, etc. It's just a minute away.

The house is big, with three bedrooms. If you’d like to come to the area for mountain biking, road cycling, paddling, or sailing please register and join us for whatever you want to do. The house was $2200.
