May 8th-10th 2026Come ride the trails of Powell River, home to some of the best mountain unicycling trails, with a variety of styles from north shore style, to more flowy trails.
Trail selection will be modified if group size gets very large and different levels of trails are necessary. Expect that all selected rides will be fairly challenging. If you would like easier trail options, please let us know.
Accommodations:
We have two nights reserved at the Powell Lake Outdoor Learning Centre (OLC), which gives us quick access to all of the trails in the region.
Total cost for weekend is $125, which includes:
Accommodation for 2 nights (Friday and Saturday night) at the Powell Lake Outdoor Learning Centre
2 dinners (pasta & burgers)
Cost for travel from Vancouver (we’ll be car sharing in local vehicles)
T-shirts will be extra at $45 each

Getting to Powell River
We will be organizing a carshare from Vancouver up to Powell River early on Friday, aiming to get into town for around noon, ready for some afternoon rides. We have very limited number of seats available in the carshare up (12 max).
If you wish to make your own way to Powell River there are a few options available to you:
1. Arrive by plane by flying with Harbour Air, or with Pacific Coastal.
Note that baggage is limited on these planes
2. Driving up you will need to take two ferries, and we recommend making reservations for the first ferry leaving from Horseshoe Bay ferry terminal (in West Vancouver). The second ferry goes from Earls Cove to Saltery Bay
