Intro to Mountain Bike Day Camp

June 23-27, 2025
Ages: 7-14
This camp is geared towards those who are new to the wild and wonderful world of adventure by mountain bike. Individual attention helps riders conquer small and large obstacles, while benefiting from the low pressure environment and encouragement from the group. Riders will practice our skills during group rides on Kingdom Trails and in the Burke Mountain Bike Park, while also leaving enough time for outdoor games, team-buildinlow-pressureg challenges, and swimming. Groups may also begin a spontaneous game of camouflage in the woods as a way to loosen our single-track muscle and remind everyone of the most fundamental rule of mountain biking – it’s fun! Camps often ride in two age groups – so that both younger and older intro riders can learn and have fun alongside their peers.

Monday – Friday, 9am-4pm
Cost: $750 (NEK Students $700)
