Know Before You Go When venturing out in and up the mountains during the winter season be safe, be prepared and tell someone where you’re going and when you’ll be back. There are many great websites such as AdventureSmart.ca and Avalanche.ca that provide details on how to be safe outdoors during the winter months. Drop by local sport and gear shops for additional advice and needs, visit TourismFernie.com for details and places to stay. Pick up a map and also download the TrailForks App on to your phone and search for Fernie. Trailforks also uses your smart phone’s GPS to show you where you are on the winter trails. For snowmobiling details visit FernieSnowmobile.com and for ski touring details visit FernieTrails.com.
Exploring During COVID-19• Being outdoors and in wide-open spaces is safe and healthy. • When encountering others on a trail provide enough space
to pass safely.• If you’re sick stay home until you are well. Call 811 for
advice.• Limit your family/group size when exploring. • Follow local and provincial COVID-19 orders and protocols,
visit tourismfernie.com/COVID• Play within your limits. Local, small town hospitals have
limited capacity.

This map, and the enhanced multi-use trail grooming and access to parking and washrooms is unique for this winter season. It is the result of a new Winter Trails Collaborative focused on addressing the increase in trail usage due to COVID-19 and the increased desire to be outdoors. It has been made possible by the work and funding from multiple partners, the Resort Municipality Initiative and Columbia Basin Trust. To support these enhancements for future winter seasons please support and buy the FERNIE TRAILS PASS at FernieTrailsAlliance.com
Parking Details & Etiquette• Parking areas are indicated on the big map as Please obey all parking signs.• Parking is limited. Only park where designated. Do not park along main roads,
block traffic or park in residential areas.• All designated parking areas, excluding some at the Base Area at Fernie Alpine
Resort, are free of charge to use.• Please park with common sense and be mindful and respectful of others.• Parking areas can be busy. Please be cautious, and be safe around vehicles.• If you don’t have to drive to access the trails please don’t.• No overnight parking is allowed anywhere.• Please keep your dog on a leash while in parking areas.
P
Download the TRAILFORKS APP for trail details, GPS navigation data, and user-generated trail condition and grooming updates.
Please Obey All Posted SignageCall 911 for any emergencies
Managed by the Fernie Snowmobile Assn. This snowmobiling area and access may see closures due to logging. For updates visit FernieSnowmobile.com
Think Before You SinkFernie multi-use groomed trails are maintained by local vol-unteers for the benefit of everyone and a variety of activities including walking, fat biking, trail running, snowshoeing and xc skiing. To keep the trails in the best shape for everyone please follow the below winter groomed multi-use trail etiquette:
Freshly groomed trails may need a bit of time to set so walkers, fat bikers or runners don’t break through, leave bootpack holes or ruts. If this is happening stay to the side of the trail, use a different trail or wait until it’s firm.
Fat tire bikes are recommended for winter trails. You should have enough flotation and traction that you aren’t leaving a rut and you can safely control your bike. See reverse side for winter fat biking etiquette.
If your furry friend is with you, please clean up after them and ensure no poo is left on the trails.Fernie has many furry friends and welcomes visitors with dogs too, but please keep them on a leash or, when signs allow, close and under control as many conflicts or incidents can easily happen with other dogs, wildlife or people, especially young kids who can be afraid of dogs.
Take a photo of this QR Code with your smart phone to access the digital version of this Winter Trail Map!
Please Clean Up After Your Dog

Trail Conditions & Grooming Reports:
• FernieNordic.com/grooming• Trailforks.com or download the App• Be a trail ambassador by providing trail condition updates during
and after using the trails on TrailForks• Grooming is weather and conditions dependant
Winter Biking Info & EtiquetteGet your Trails Pass from the Fernie Trails Alliance. 90% of trails are groomed by volunteers!
Rentals:You can rent a fat bike from a variety of bike shops in town or at Fernie Alpine Resort.
Suggested Multi-Use Groomed Trails:• For beginners, start with wide, flat trails such as Emily Brydon Trail,
Great Northern Trail, Easy Beaver or Coal Creek Heritage Trail.• For intermediate or advanced fat bikers, try Ridgemont area,
Montane Blue, Roots, the Provincial Park, Fernie Alpine Resort or Phat Bastard.
Winter Biking Trail Etiquette:• Respect and kindness toward all trail users. All trails in Fernie,
except Nordic/Cross-Country Skiing dedicated, are multi-use and for all types of non-motorized activities.
• Do not bike on GREEN trails. These are dedicated to Cross-Country Skiing only.
• You should have enough flotation so you can travel over snow without leaving a rut.
• You should have sufficient traction that you are able to safely control your bike and ride in a straight line.
• Fat tire bikes are recommended on winter trails.• For the best flotation and traction, it’s all about tire pressure! Tire
pressure should usually be between 4-6 PSI for winter biking and sometimes lower. A good practice is to start off each ride with a little more air in your tires than you think you’ll need and let air out on the trail depending on the conditions.
• If you are riding a multi-use trail with classic XC ski track set, such as Fernie Alpine Resort XC trails, do not ride on or in the track.
• Yield to all other users. Other users don’t have brakes, but you do!
Fat Biking Info & Etiquette
• Silk, Manchuria and Scandia Trail are groomed and track set for skate and classic skiing. These trails are multi-use as well. Only XC ski in the track.
• Nordic ski, snowshoe and fat bike rentals are available at the base area.
