Raging Elk Fernie Frosty Four 2025

We’re thrilled to announce a brand new event that will have you embracing winter in all its frosty glory—The Raging Elk Fernie Frosty Four! This exciting winter multisport race is a celebration of all the winter sports fun you can have at Fernie Alpine Resort.

What is the Fernie Frosty Four?
The Fernie Frosty Four is a unique relay-style race that brings together four of the most iconic winter activities that you can enjoy at Fernie Alpine Resort: skiing/snowboarding, snowshoeing, nordic skiing, and fat biking. Each sport represents one of the race stages, ensuring an exciting and fun experience from start to finish.

The Fernie Frosty Four is a race, but it’s more than just about speed—it’s about having fun and celebrating the end of winter in true Fernie style! While there’s a competitive edge for those who want to push themselves, the emphasis is on enjoying the outdoors, challenging yourself, and embracing the spirit of the season.  You can take on the entire race solo, testing your endurance across each stage, or our favourite option is to team up with friends, with each person tackling a different leg of the course. To keep things lighthearted and festive, costumes are encouraged for all participants—get creative and add a bit of flair to your race!

This event strikes the perfect balance between personal challenge and team camaraderie, making it a truly unforgettable experience for everyone involved. No matter which stage you choose, you’ll be racing through the incredible terrain of Fernie Alpine Resort, and you’re guaranteed a blast with every slide, step, and pedal. Whether you’re an experienced athlete or simply looking for a fun way to wrap up the winter season, the Fernie Frosty Four has something for everyone!
