FERNIE SNOWMOBILE ASSOCIATION

voted bc’s 2025 snowmobile club of the year!

Fernie is a mountain town in the heart of British Columbia’s South Rockies with deep roots, deep snow, and a sledding community like no other.

Each winter, we average 29 feet of snowfall across a landscape shaped by rugged peaks, rich history, and strong community ties. Whether you're chasing powder, exploring groomed trails, or gathering with friends at a warming shelter, Fernie delivers the kind of sledding that keeps you coming back.

The Fernie Snowmobile Association maintains over 250 km of groomed trails, five riding areas, and three day-use cabins - all powered by volunteers, member support, and a shared love for the land.

Honouring

ʔamakʔis Ktunaxa

We gratefully acknowledge that our trails and cabins are located within ʔamakʔis Ktunaxa, the homeland of the Ktunaxa Nation. We honour their deep connection to this land and strive to be respectful stewards as we ride, gather, and share these mountains with our community and visitors.
