2. Fat Biking

Revelstoke is pretty serious about biking and we don’t let the snow stop us! Rent fat bikes from Skookum or Tantrum and hit the trails. Or better yet, book a tour with Wandering Wheels, our local bike guide experts.

Does anything taste better than a warm hot chocolate and a yummy treat whilst nestled away in a cozy backcountry lodge? Hit one of the awesome coffee shops in town for supplies and skin up to the cabin with friends for an epic day out.
