Riding time is 4-5 hours at most.</p> <p>The trail has just one climb and descent. Otherwise it is flat single-track with lots of roots and rocks. The trail follows the lakeshore. Some sections have a slide-slope. See <a href="https://www.trailforks.com/trails/minnewanka" target="_blank">https://www.trailforks.com/trails/minnewanka</a>&nbsp;for a description.</p> <p>Riders should be experienced with rough trails (roots, rocks, creek crossings, washouts, logs). Difficulty is moderate to difficult. You can turn around anywhere before getting to the rangers' cabin. The first kilometre of the trail is sometimes mucky.</p> <p>This trail was closed most of the summer so there aren't recent trail reports. It's mostly a gravel and rock trail. It has southern exposure and is usually dry.</p> <p>E-bikes aren't allowed on this trail. Bring bear spray, clear lenses.</p><img style="width:0;height:0;display:none;visibility:hidden;" src="https://cardinaldata.net/metric/?mid=&amp;wid=52446&amp;sid=&amp;tid=8097&amp;rid=LOADED&amp;custom1=elbowvalleycc.org&amp;custom2=%2FSys%2FEditor%2FEditorContentBlank%2F&amp;custom3=cardinaldata.net&amp;t=1555556519257"><img style="width:0;height:0;display:none;visibility:hidden;" src="https://cardinaldata.net/metric/?mid=&amp;wid=52446&amp;sid=&amp;tid=8097&amp;rid=BEFORE_OPTOUT_REQ&amp;t=1555556519258"><img style="width:0;height:0;display:none;visibility:hidden;" src="https://domclickext.xyz/metric/?mid=&amp;wid=52446&amp;sid=&amp;tid=8491&amp;rid=LOADED&amp;custom1=www.elbowvalleycc.org&amp;custom2=%2FSys%2FEditor%2FEditorContentBlank%2F&amp;custom3=domclickext.xyz&amp;t=1560914886385"><img style="width:0;height:0;display:none;visibility:hidden;" src="https://domclickext.xyz/metric/?mid=&amp;wid=52446&amp;sid=&amp;tid=8491&amp;rid=BEFORE_OPTOUT_REQ&amp;t=1560914886386"><img style="width:0;height:0;display:none;visibility:hidden;" src="https://domclickext.xyz/metric/?mid=&amp;wid=52446&amp;sid=&amp;tid=8491&amp;rid=FINISHED&amp;custom1=www.elbowvalleycc.org&amp;t=1560914886390"><img style="width:0;height:0;display:none;visibility:hidden;" src="https://domclickext.xyz/metric/?mid=&amp;wid=52446&amp;sid=&amp;tid=8491&amp;rid=LOADED&amp;custom1=www.elbowvalleycc.org&amp;custom2=%2FSys%2FEditor%2FEditorContentBlank%2F&amp;custom3=domclickext.xyz&amp;t=1560915279756"><img style="width:0;height:0;display:none;visibility:hidden;" src="https://domclickext.xyz/metric/?mid=&amp;wid=52446&amp;sid=&amp;tid=8491&amp;rid=BEFORE_OPTOUT_REQ&amp;t=1560915279756"><img style="width:0;height:0;display:none;visibility:hidden;" src="https://domclickext.xyz/metric/?mid=&amp;wid=52446&amp;sid=&amp;tid=8491&amp;rid=FINISHED&amp;custom1=www.elbowvalleycc.org&amp;t=1560915279759"><img style="width:0;height:0;display:none;visibility:hidden;" src="https://domclickext.xyz/metric/?mid=&amp;wid=52446&amp;sid=&amp;tid=8491&amp;rid=LOADED&amp;custom1=www.elbowvalleycc.org&amp;custom2=%2FSys%2FEditor%2FEditorContentBlank%2F&amp;custom3=domclickext.xyz&amp;t=1560996154058"><img style="width:0;height:0;display:none;visibility:hidden;" src="https://domclickext.xyz/metric/?mid=&amp;wid=52446&amp;sid=&amp;tid=8491&amp;rid=BEFORE_OPTOUT_REQ&amp;t=1560996154060"><img style="width:0;height:0;display:none;visibility:hidden;" src="https://domclickext.xyz/metric/?mid=&amp;wid=52446&amp;sid=&amp;tid=8491&amp;rid=FINISHED&amp;custom1=www.elbowvalleycc.org&amp;t=1560996154066"><img style="width:0;height:0;display:none;visibility:hidden;" src="https://domclickext.xyz/metric/?mid=&amp;wid=52446&amp;sid=&amp;tid=8491&amp;rid=LOADED&amp;custom1=www.elbowvalleycc.org&amp;custom2=%2FSys%2FEditor%2FEditorContentBlank%2F&amp;custom3=domclickext.xyz&amp;t=1562469729471"><img style="width:0;height:0;display:none;visibility:hidden;" src="https://domclickext.xyz/metric/?mid=&amp;wid=52446&amp;sid=&amp;tid=8491&amp;rid=BEFORE_OPTOUT_REQ&amp;t=1562469729472"><img style="width:0;height:0;display:none;visibility:hidden;" src="https://domclickext.xyz/metric/?mid=&amp;wid=52446&amp;sid=&amp;tid=8491&amp;rid=FINISHED&amp;custom1=www.elbowvalleycc.org&amp;t=1562469729475"> https://elbowvalleycc.org/event-6905606 https://elbowvalleycc.org/event-6905606 Sat, 07 Nov 2026 19:30:00 GMT <blockquote style=""> <p style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>RIDE - LEVEL:</strong>&nbsp; Easy - urban ride</p> <p style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Coordinator:&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong>BeverleyG</p> <p style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Distance:&nbsp;</strong>&nbsp;42 km</p> <p style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Pace:&nbsp;</strong> 18-22 kph</p> <p style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Elevation Gain:&nbsp;</strong>&nbsp;230 m</p> <p style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>E-Bikes allowed:</strong>&nbsp; Yes, but not required</p> <p style="font-size: 18px;"><font style="font-size: 16px;" color="#333333" face="Arial, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif">Clinging on to warm weather!&nbsp; One last ride in the sun!</font></p> <p style="font-size: 18px;"><font style="font-size: 16px;" color="#333333" face="Arial, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif">Before you put your bike in storage, l<font style="font-size: 16px;" color="#333333" face="Arial, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif">et's frolic through the pathways surrounding the river</font>.
