MOUNTAIN BIKING
| Narrow single-track becomes rocky downhill becomes roots and mud joins up with a fire-road leading to a trail around an emerald-colored lake which joins up with the rest of Jasper's trail system, well-maintained by Parks Canada. Mountain biking is permitted on most trails, except some of the more heavily used horse trails, in Jasper National Park. Enjoy a spin on a wide, flat trail through valley-bottom forest, then grunt up a thigh-burning fire road to the top of Signal Mountain. Bike rentals, sales and advice are available at local bike shops.
