Hinton Bike Park

Reviewed By kmA9814SU

This park has everything for all skill levels and features a diverse trail system that is surprisingly remote and difficult. Be sure to read the maps and Trailforks.com to find the best trails and access to downhill trails. The skills park is great for kids (locals often have birthday parties here). It's also just a nice place to hike and explore too. If you're a visitor with some extra time be sure to also visit the Brule bike park! If you're travelling to Edmonton also check out the Velosolutions pump tracks that Yellowhead County built along Highway 16 (Marlboro, Peers, Niton, Wildwood and Evansburg) For those looking for more core mountain biking visit the local bike shop (Vicious Cycle) and ask staff to direct you to the Hinton Nordic Centre for the Froehler Coaster trails. As always bring bear spray for chance encounters with bears and cougars. It doesn't happen often but it does happen.

Whitehorse Wildland Provincial Park

Whitehorse Wildland Park is southeast of Hinton adjacent to Jasper National Park. The park preserves critical habitat for grizzly bear, bighorn sheep and harlequin ducks. Many rare alpine plants have been documented in the area, part of which is believed to have escaped glaciation during the last ice age. Cadomin Cave, located in the park, contains important bat habitat. There are reports of up to 30,000 bats visiting the cave annually.
