Fish Creek bike ride (moderately difficult)

"This is our annual bike ride to Fish Creek! "
The weather is warming up, the trees are turning green, and our spirits are rising. Let’s embrace this beautiful season and ride together once again.
There will be a few tough hills along the way, but we’ve conquered them before—and we can definitely do it again, with smiles all around!

- Distance: 40-45 km round trip
- Elevation gain: ~200 meters (there are a few steep hills !)
-Estimated time on the trail: 4 to 5 hours, but no guarantees.
If you’re on a tight schedule, this ride might not be for you.
We’re out there to enjoy the day, take it easy, and just go with the flow."
- Group size: 8-10
