Launching from the beautiful Fernie Nordic Centre, racers head straight into downcountry nirvana, accessing the very trails and terrain that put this mountain town on the global mountain bike map.

A new age of mountain bike racing. Steep n’ Deep XC delivers a rowdy cross-country course featuring 4 unique timed stages, each offering a taste of Fernie’s classic trail riding flavour from technical climbing, steep descents, and everything in between. Following an enduro-style format, only your time within these stages counts toward your overall result, meaning between the full-throttle efforts you’ll have time to recover, refuel, and socialize with your pals on the transfers to the next timed stage. In true downcountry fashion, there’s more descending than climbing, but beware, every descent is hard earned.
