Specialty Hike #5: Forestry at Fernie Alpine Resort

The secret history of trees: Forestry

Uncover the story behind the burnt out stumps that dot much of the mountain and how they’re part of a curse from Fernie’s past. Explore the mystical, 800 year old Old Growth Grove and discover how it gives away the secret of Fernie’s incredible amounts of powder snow in winter. Fernie Alpine Resort's specialty hikes are fully guided by their experienced, professional staff. Hikes are moderate difficulty, and are 3 hours in length.

Lift ticket or season pass is required as all specialty hikes are lift accessed.
