Winter Art Discovery

Wednesday, 02 October 2024 by Pat Nichols
 Winter Art Discovery at Fernie Alpine Resort

Fernie Alpine Resort is thrilled to partner with The Fernie Arts Station and District Arts Council to bring you Winter Art Discovery, an immersive outdoor art experience showcasing the incredible talent of local artists.

In this unique exhibit, artists have transformed skis and snowboards into captivating works of art. Each piece reflects the artist’s individual style and connection to nature, creating an enchanting visual experience as you ride through the forest. Free from constraints, the artists have infused their creations with creativity and flair, turning the slopes into an outdoor gallery.

These original artworks are displayed along the Cedar Trail, easily accessed via the Lower Bear Run. This exhibition is inspired by R.O.A.M. (Revelstoke’s Outdoor Art Movement), blending the worlds of art and outdoor adventure.

Click here to view the trail map and discover the Winter Art Discovery installation.


Call for Artists – ‘Out of the Box’ Exhibition

We invite all Kootenay artists to submit their work for our exciting new exhibit, Out of the Box.

Submission Deadline: November 4th, 2024

For this public art exhibit, think ‘Out of the Box’ by exploring creative, unusual ideas that are not limited or controlled by rules or tradition.

The exhibition will run until April 13th, 2025, and all pieces will be available for purchase at the end of the show.

ART IN THE WILD: ART WALK

Tuesday, 15 August 2023 by Pat Nichols

Fernie Alpine Resort is excited to collaborate with The Fernie Arts Station and the Fernie District Arts Council to present an outdoor art gallery, bringing you a wonderful art display from some of our talented local artists.

Artists were asked to create original pieces to enjoy as you stroll through the forest and potentially purchase to support local artists and culture. Free to create a piece that spoke to them, many of our artists painted the outdoors, encapsulating nature with a playful outcome. This exhibition is a celebration of special places, characters and colour expressions from their artistic minds.

These original pieces are set up along the Boom Trail, creating the Art Gallery Walk in nature. Inspired by R.O.A.M- Revelstokes outdoor art movement. Bringing the art and sport communities together.

The art will be on display until September 4th. At which point any purchased art can be collected / delivered by the Fernie Arts Station.

Art is available to purchase at the following link:

Summer of ’22

Friday, 24 June 2022 by Emma Padgett

Tomorrow is the day, we open for summer 2022!

Enjoy lift-accessed mountain biking, hiking & sightseeing all summer long!

The Elk Chair will be open daily from 10:30 am to 4:30 pm (with extended hours from 10:30 am to 7:00 pm on Thursdays).

Our summer operations run from June 25th to September 5th

After a slow snowmelt, we’ve been busy getting the trails ready for another great summer of fun.

 

What have we been up to? Here’s a quick rundown.

 

Lizard Lane is freshly built and ready to go. A favourite addition to our trail network that’s been a staple over the past few summers.

 

We are excited to have been able to add some much needed dirt and machine work to Mr. Berms. The intention is to reduce brake bumps, cap the rocks and enlarge the berms on the Elk Run.

 

Ben’s Big Rig is back for 2022 as a green run to access Deer Trail or to ride all the way down to Bear load with access to Lower Duff Dynasty. Ben’s Big Rig received dirt and machine work to build up berms and remove brake bumps. This work is still being finished off so may not be ready for opening day, but will be soon after.

 

The popular family-friendly hiking trail, Daisy Lane will be rerouted at the top to avoid Ben’s Big Rig.

 

The exits to biking trails Top Gun, Aggravated Assault and Deer Trail received a machine top-up.

 

Upper Top Gun had a berm and jump rebuild by hand last fall. There are plans to rebuild the middle section this summer.

 

Bin Logdin had a berm and jump rebuild last fall.

 

All other trails have been raked and most green and blue trails have had drainage, ruts and berms touched up by hand.

 

Rubber Ducky, and most lower Timber side trails (except Bin Logdin), will be closed for opening day due to ongoing work. We are hoping to get these trails open asap.

 

Verboten may be closed until next week as there are 5 big trees down. We are working with our saw crew to have them removed.

 

All other multi-use trails are clear, signed and open.

NEW Uphill E-Bike / Enduro Route

Saturday, 01 August 2020 by Emma Padgett

Why take the chairlift if you’ve got an e-mountain bike! New this summer, we now allow uphill bike traffic (e-mountain bikes* or regular mountain bikes) on our specified uphill route at the Fernie Alpine Resort Bike Park.

E-mountain bikers will love the convenience of quick laps on this uphill only route, which accesses the Elk Side downhill trails as well as Lower TNT (from Rock Landing only) on the Timber side.  Your laps can be short – deke off at access point A to rip down Honeybee, Eville, Holo Bike and Phat Larry’s – or take the longer pedal on up to access point B or C to access the rest of the DH trails in the bike park.  Of course, those who like to pedal under their own power are also welcome!  It’s a great way to stay and get fit, and enjoy the adrenaline of our DH trails too!

Uphill riders MUST have a valid Uphill E-Bike/Enduro ticket, or mountain bike season pass/day ticket in order to access our bike park trails.  Please visit Guest Services to purchase your ticket.

*E-mountain bikes permitted in the bike park are Type 1 (pedal assist) e-mountain bikes.

Please note that the uphill route is open only during regular bike park hours:

Monday – Friday:  10:30am to 4:30pm (to 7pm on Thursdays)

Saturday & Sunday:  9:30am to 4:30pm

Please visit our website’s bike park trail map to see the new uphill route.
