Trail Development

What's Happening? 

​​

In the past six years, we have consulted with community members, local First Nation Authorities, the City of Prince Rupert, and other local stakeholders and associations. We have also consulted with the Provincial Government through Recreation Sites and Trails BC (RSTBC) on trail development and expressed our community’s need for biking opportunities.

 

We assessed the viability of several potential mountain bike trail locations and secured a location for an asphalt pump track with the approval of the City of Prince Rupert council.

 

In 2020, we publicly surveyed the community to better understand our existing and potential member needs. Our survey results have guided our priorities for the last five years and will continue for another 3-5 years.

​

2024/25 kicked off a major fundraising component for our asphalt pump track project, which we hope will be completed in 2025/26.

 

Our fundraising strategy includes securing several large grants, which will be used to construct and complete the pump track by 2026.

 

MASTER trail design is in the works...

​

McElhanney won the contract and toured the site in 2022. We also continue to engage with local businesses and big and small industries for donations or grants, community fundraising support, and in-kind donations such as materials and labour. 

​

We know you want some liquid sunshine, and we are working hard to bring mountain biking to our community!
