Comox Valley Mountain Biking

Come out to the Comox Valley mountain bike trails and enjoy what this time of year has to offer. The Valley boasts some of the most varied on Vancouver Island, with XC, DH, Shuttle Runs and Lift accessed riding. Be sure to bring your friends, spend a weekend and have fun.

New mountain bike trail maps for both Forbidden Plateau and Cumberland have been updated and are now on sale at Dodge City Cycles and the Riding Fool Hostel. Check out the online Cumberland trail map here and the online Forbidden trail map here

We just made some changes to our mountain bike trail info, check out the Trails link above for more info, and maps for various island regions. Additionally we have added new a new Trail Conditions forum to update trail status in the regions.

Looking for gifts for the mountain biker in your life? Check out our new online clothing store or our Amazon.com Bookstore.

Trail Status

Well the logging has stopped, and the results are pretty good! Bucket of Blood as far as Forest Dump has been saved, and the remainder of the trail has been opened up by machine leaving us quite the opportunity for an epic dual slalom! The River Rats have been busy, building a great new trail along the border of the cut block following Perseverence Creek.

Additionally you can access the Steamdonkey / Teapot region using the new trail from the Trent River main about 200m up from the junction with Allen Lake Main. Check new trail maps for that info.

Are you busy working or living away from the Comox Valley Trails? You can still do your part and make a donation towards trail building on Forbidden and in Cumberland.
