The centrepiece of the local scene is Pidherny, a multi-zone trail system with everything from mellow climbing routes to steep, technical lines and big-air jump trails. It’s the go-to for riders who want variety and progression. Otway and the Cranbrook Hill Greenway offer fast, forested cross-country trails perfect for fitness rides or longer loops, while Tabor Mountain brings that backcountry feel — long climbs, raw natural terrain, and rewarding descents. Together, these trail systems give Prince George a mountain biking culture that’s accessible, challenging, and welcoming for every type of rider.
