The Bike Park, Mile 1 chairlift, mini-golf, activity zone opened Saturday, May 19 for the first of several preview weekends. It’s the first time since 2019 that the Bike Park has opened this early and we’re looking at some sweet early-season riding!
Here’s the lowdown on what you can expect:
The Panorama Bike Park will be open 10 AM - 4 PM every Saturday & Sunday until June 24 when we kick of daily operations.
Starting June 24, until September 3 the Bike Park will be open daily from 10 AM – 4 PM, with extended hours until 5 PM on Saturdays thanks to our friends at Fernie Brewing Company.
Lift tickets are available online and you’ll save up to 20% when you purchase in advance. You can also buy on the day from Guest Services. If you already have a Panorama RFID card you can reload DH days online and head straight to the chairlift. Learn more.
Check out our trail report for the latest on what will open.
Last week we saw great conditions, and Trail Crew worked their magic to get some sneaky bonus lines open for us!
This week's lineup is:
We've had a good run of sunny skies and warm weather this week helping to dry out the mountain, creating tacky trails in the trees with dry loose to dry firm elsewhere. This weekend's forecast has cooler temperatures prevailing, and a healthy dose of prospective precipitation. Be prepared to choose your own adventure, and plan for everything from dry firm dirt in the trees to mud in more exposed climes. Our trail crew are pretty magical, but early-season conditions still exist.
We have a big lineup of events back on our calendar this season. The Branch Out Bike Tour makes it return to Panorama in June. OK Times Funduro is back in July along with the Dunbar Summer Series and the TransRockies Gravel Royal kicks off a massive multi-day race in August. We’ll close down the summer season once again with Red Bull Downtime on September 2 & 3. For dates and more info, check out our website.
That’s it for now, tune up your ride and get ready for an awesome gravity season!
