Touted as the juggernaut of bicycles, many shops have actually started recommending fat bikes in lieu of other bikes thanks to their versatility, rollover-ability, and sheer gumption to conquer any terrain. Aside from being a blast in the snow, they are a hoot to ride on almost any trail, any time of year, extending a cyclist’s season and avoiding the dreaded trainer (boo). Best of all, they make you feel like you’re 8 years old again–you’ll be hard pressed to wipe that grin off your face!

Fat biking at Canmore Nordic Centre is only permitted on designated single track trails marked with fat bike signage.
