With some of the best biking terrain in North America including 185 km of cross country trails, challenging downhill at Mount 7 and lift assisted downhill park at Kicking Horse Mountain Resort, Golden is fast becoming one of the key places in the Canadian Rockies for mountain biking and biking events.
