An IMBA Epic ridge ride and a new Gravity Logic park.

Rossland’s trails follow old mining routes and rail grades, more than 200 km of them, and the 30 km Seven Summits Trail is a true backcountry ridge traverse. Since 2025 RED Mountain has added a lift-served bike park on the Silverlode chair, built with Gravity Logic for progression. It suits self-sufficient intermediate to expert riders, with RED for laps between big days.
