Mountain Biking Prairie View

The Prairie View Trail measures about 6km one-way, climbing up from the Barrier Lake parking area to the top of McConnell Ridge. The trail begins by climbing very steeply on doubletrack, but eventually it narrows to singletrack as it approaches the top of the ridge. Once on top of the ridge, the trail plummets steeply down a narrow, rooty, technical singletrack to a junction with the Jewell Pass and Quaite Valley trails.
While there IS a Prairie View from the top, don't be fooled: most of the views off of this trail are of the dramatic Alberta Rocky Mountains!
