WELCOME TO WHITEFISH

Located in the heart of the spectacular Rocky Mountains & nestled at the gateway to Glacier National Park, Whitefish boasts almost unparalleled beauty and wilderness in the lower 48.

This is a breathtaking opportunity to experience just a taste of the the millions of acres of mountains, forests, lakes, and rivers that surround the quaint little town of Whitefish in every direction.

Our trip lands smack in the middle of the Whitefish Range -comprised of numerous lakes, wild and scenic rivers and an enormous valley that stretches 60 square miles and features an impressive amount of rugged, and in the best way, scrappy trails that ebb and flow throughout the valley. A day of riding at The Whitefish Bike Park provides 360 degree views along with 22 trails that pump, bump, and flow down to the valley floor.

Itinerary

Subject to change based on conditions.

Night 1

Guests arrive to a gorgeous spread of appetizers, drinks, and a warm welcome from our entire staff. Throughout the evening we will get settled in, get bikes dialed, go over the weekend's itinerary, answer all your questions, including preparing you for a crazy fun weekend of bikes bikes bikes!

Day 1

We'll kick things off right with a pedal right out the back patio and onto the Whitefish Trail. This XC style purpose-built trail navigates around three breathtaking lakes - the last of which is perfect for a dip! Lunch will be served back at the Whitefish Bike Retreat, afterwards you can opt in for an epic shuttled downhill run on a newly designed trail. Our team will have apres-bike drinks and snacks waiting for you to pre-game an optional evening tech & gear clinic with a stunningly delicious dinner & a little campfire kumbaya to follow.

Ride: 6-20 miles, 600-1,200 ft climbing.

Day 2

After a filling and tasty breakfast (savory oatmeal...just trust us), we'll load into shuttles and head out to an epic high alpine ride on Reid Divide. Be ready for stunning backcountry, techy singletrack, & quick rowdy descents. Several extra credit options are available for those who, well, like extra credit! Lunch will be served lakeside before heading home; guests can opt for a calming session in the wood-fired sauna (and maybe a few of our famous Roam-a-ritas) or a quick trip to town. We'll close out the long summer day with a relaxing dinner and mellow campfire sessions.

Ride: 16-24 miles, 1300-3200 ft climbing.

Day 3

Our final day of riding will be riders choice with plenty of spicy (and chill!) trail options at the Whitefish Mountain Resort Bike Park. Lift passes are included in trip price, bring downhill riding gear. Lunch will be served trailside with plenty of ride leaders around to hit the trails afterward for round 2 (or 3 or 6) should you feel the need to ride until your legs fall off. This is our final day together (don't be too sad, there's always next year), so we'll pack up, hug it out, and send you home most likely grinning ear to ear.

Ride: as much or as little as you want!

"I was hesitant at first since I rarely ride outside of training for an event. What an amazing way to unwind, connect with friends, and step outside your box. Totally worth every second. Will be back."
