Kicking Horse Bike Park

About Kicking Horse Bike Park

Situated near the town of Golden in British Columbia, Kicking Horse Bike Park is famous for combining challenging mountain biking terrain with some of the most spectacular scenery in the Canadian Rockies. Built around Kicking Horse Mountain Resort, the park offers riders access to rugged alpine landscapes, significant vertical descent, and an extensive network of downhill and freeride trails. The mountain's elevation and terrain create long descents that pass through forests, rocky slopes, alpine meadows, and technical mountain terrain. Riders can choose from progression-friendly flow trails or highly technical routes featuring roots, rocks, drops, steep gradients, and natural obstacles. Kicking Horse has earned a reputation for delivering an authentic big-mountain riding experience. Unlike some bike parks that focus primarily on machine-built features, many of its trails retain a natural character that rewards strong bike-handling skills and route selection. This has made the destination particularly popular among experienced downhill and enduro riders. The resort's gondola system provides efficient access to the upper mountain, where riders are treated to panoramic views of the Canadian Rockies. Few destinations combine such dramatic scenery with high-quality gravity riding. Visitors benefit from bike rentals, repair facilities, accommodations, restaurants, and a growing mountain biking community centered around the town of Golden. Combined with access to nearby trail networks and outdoor recreation opportunities, Kicking Horse offers a complete mountain adventure. Today, the park remains one of Western Canada's most respected mountain biking destinations and a must-visit location for riders seeking technical terrain, long descents, and unforgettable mountain landscapes.
