Chilcotins

Looking for an unforgettable backcountry mountain biking adventure? The South Chilcotin Mountains in British Columbia are renowned for their breathtaking alpine landscapes, vast networks of wilderness singletrack trails, and the ultimate blend of challenge and reward. With Sweet Skills’ guided mountain bike camps, you’ll experience the thrill of riding through alpine meadows, rugged mountain passes, and rolling grasslands, all while soaking in panoramic views that stretch for miles.

From floatplane-accessed alpine lakes to technical climbs and thrilling descents, every ride in the Chilcotins is an adventure. Whether you’re a beginner looking for a scenic ride or an advanced rider seeking a challenge, there’s something for everyone. Sweet Skills has been collaborating with Tyax Adventures for over a decade to offer women’s-specific backcountry mountain bike camps tailored to intermediate and advanced riders. Whether you’re looking to push your limits with challenging climbs and hike-a-bike sections or savor the serenity of overnight stays in backcountry cabins, these camps offer the perfect mix of adventure, skill development, and connection with nature.

The journey begins with a scenic floatplane drop-off at remote alpine lakes like Warner Lake or Lorna Lake, setting the stage for point-to-point rides through some of the most stunning and remote terrain in British Columbia. Expect a combination of technical rocky sections, flowy singletrack, steep climbs and rewarding alpine descents that test your skills while delivering unforgettable views. Off the bike, the experience is just as memorable. Evenings are spent in cozy backcountry cabins at locations like Spruce Camp and/or Bearpaw Camp, where you’ll enjoy hearty meals, unwind by the bonfire, and share stories with new friends under the star-filled sky. A refreshing dip in nearby alpine lakes or a leisurely post-ride stretch session adds to the overall relaxation after exhilarating days on the trails.
