Our note
Six riders per guide is a hard cap, so a class needs several sessions and several guides booked at once. The price is for the guide only, so a bike, armour and a lift ticket all land on top of it.

What the children do

A two hour guided ride in the Bike Park for riders aged 6 to 12, in groups of no more than six with a guide who specialises in working with children, on green, blue and lighter black trails with priority lift loading. The $34 price is for the guiding only. Lift tickets and rentals must be bought as add ons and no rental discounts apply. Sessions run Saturday and Sunday at noon and 2:30pm. The resort recommends the Learn to Ride and Step Up lessons first for anyone new to mountain biking.

Ride downhill trails in the Bike Park behind a guide for two hours, loading the chairlift ahead of the queue between runs.

Good to know

Outdoors in the Bike Park with no wet weather alternative published. Washrooms are on site, but lunch space and bus parking are not stated.

Sources disagree. Their contact page gives two different notice periods for booking a lesson. One line says 48 hours ahead, another says 24 hours through the call centre with a cut off at noon the day before. Book as early as you can and get the date confirmed.
