Mountain Biking Strathcona Science Park
#7 of 219 mountain bike trails in Alberta
#1,578 in the world
Small Bike track at science park which is good for a nice warmup. From there head south along the rivers edge or up on top of the bank until you reach the refineries. Someone built a bike park between the refinery and river. Trails are technical and the climbs are steep. Not dangerous but would be frustrating for a beginner rider.

Take Yellowhead Trail to 17st street (or 98th AVE to 17th street) and head towards Sunridge Ski Hill. Beside Sunridge is the Strathcona Science Park. Unload Bikes and head towards the river.
Grew up in the fort and never left the trail there. Hit this up for the first time and.....why did it take so long. Pipe dream is fantastic!
| ThankRode PipeDream and Cambodia today. There were a couple muddy sections but otherwise surprisingly dry for this time of year. Definitely some technical sections with narrow rooted paths and ladders. Will definitely be back.
| ThankI, personally think this is the best riding in Edmonton. There is an abundance of trails, with varying skill levels. Pipe Dream and potluck are my favorites right now
| ThankVery nice area.
| ThankFull trail is open, new features added.
| ThankBecause of high river levels, some lower sections of trail will be closed.
| ThankDue to all the rain lower sections of the trails will be closed down NY the river. High river levels make it dangerous
| Thank
