Fernie Alpine Resort is the latest resort to be featured in BikeBC.com

Wednesday, 27 May 2009 16:12 by matt

British Columbia has lots of great mountain bike riding! There is a great offering of cross country riding but it excels at Downhill Mountain Biking! As Fernie, British Columbia started out as one of the earliest destinations for great cross country riding and now has morphed into a mecca for both Downhill Riding at Fernie Alpine Resort and an incredible offering of cross country trail riding. There are many great destinations for a mountain bike trip in Canada but few combine the best of both worlds!

We have also been working hard on adding more beginner and intermediate Downhill Mountain Biking-

Look for Ben's Big Rig, a new machine built ,green trail on the Elk side,
making it easier to conect and find Honey Bee or Eville without a huge lap
 
Enjoy the trails!

Hot Tub Time Machine Movie wraps up Filming at Fernie Alpine Resort

Wednesday, 20 May 2009 17:50 by matt

it is sad to see the crew go....we had a great time and enjoyed all of our time with the Movie Co. Such great people! Many of our staff also enjoyed being extras in the movie as well. We had great shooting weather and temperatures as Fernie Alpine Resort was turned back not only in time but to mid-winter!! Hundreds of truck-loads of snow were brought down from the mountain to make the Plaza at Fernie Alpine Resort white! 

Movie Director Steve Pink and his team did a brilliant job shooting the film. Steve noted this about Fernie Alpine Resort "I'm certainly going to make it a ski destination in the future. I would happily make another movie here. Fernie is the best kept secret in North America!"

Sad to see the crew go....We enjoyed our time with you!.....thanks again from the team at Fernie Alpine Resort!
