The Package

Airport Transfers

Group transfers are offered between Calgary airport and Fernie on the first and last day of the course. If you want to arrive early, or stay late, that's fine and we can provide advise on how to book your transfer.

Local transportation

We provide all the local transportation you need for the course activities. We have several buses of our own and for longer trips we'll arrange a charter bus.

Hotel accommodation

Accommodation is in The Red Tree Lodge, Fernie. Single rooms and Twin rooms are available and both have 2 double or queen beds, ensuite bathrooms and lots of storage space as you'll be here for four weeks.

Weekly Social Events

We'll arrange regular events when we can get together as a group in the evenings. Barbeques, soccer matches, ultimate frisbee evenings etc.

Continental Breakfast

A continental breakfast is provided on weekdays at the Red Tree Lodge. The perfect way to get you ready for a long day on the trails.

Dinners

Three course dinners are provided four evenings per week at the Red Tree Lodge. On the other evenings you can try one of the many other local restaurants or cook for yourself in our well equipped kitchen.

Season Lift Pass

A lift pass for the entire summer season is included in the cost of the course enabling you to extend your trip and ride at no extra cost.

Professional Coaching

We spread these out through the week so that you can recover. On average there are four days per week of coaching from our professional mountain bike instructors. On top of that there is the optional instructor course.

Weekly Indoor Technical Sessions

Video Analysis

Weekly video sessions will enable you to critique your own riding on the big screen at our hotel.

Bike Maintenance Seminar

Guided Hiking Trip

A day out in the mountains with a guide. You may not have your bike but this is great exercise well worth doing while you're in Canada.

Barbecue on the beach

We'll travel down to the local lake where there's a great beach to have a few beers, kick a ball around and hang out in the sun with friends.

Instructor Training Course (PMBI) - $550

This course is suitable for more advanced riders and is therefore an optional extra. The course is held in the fourth and final week. We also provide regular coaching sessions in the same week so all participants are receiving coaching each week.

Flights (approx. £500)

We can help you get you flights to Calgary arranged. You can fly to Cranbrook, a more local airport, if you want but you will need to get an internal flight from Vancouver or Calgary. Please note that our group transfer bus leaves from Calgary airport.

White water rafting - $135

1 day shooting down the river in a inflatable raft with your mates (and a pro guide!). It's a great day out, you should get to see lots of wildlife and you'll definitely get wet!
