Lethbridge Mountain Bike Park

Tucked into the Oldman River valley below Lethbridge, the Lethbridge Mountain Bike Park—officially the Silver Ridge Construction Mountain Bike Park at Botterill Bottom Park—is a purpose-built playground for riders. A network of jumps, moguls, drops and trick-stunt features sits inside a mature cottonwood forest, giving mountain bikers and BMX riders a place to learn, progress and keep practicing whatever the season. The city describes it as built for all abilities, open year-round and free to use. What makes it more than just a pile of dirt is its setting. The park occupies the river bottom, reached by dropping into the valley through neighbouring Indian Battle Park, so a session here comes wrapped in cottonwoods, birdsong and riverside views rather than a bare field. The same green space doubles as a walking-and-paddling spot, which means you can pair a ride with a stroll, a cast line or a boat launch on the Oldman.
