Celebrating 20 Years of Trails and Community
Time flies when you’re building trails and creating community! This month, Bragg Creek Trails proudly celebrates 20 years as a non-profit organization in the Bragg Creek community. Originally founded in 2004 by passionate local trail enthusiasts as the Greater Bragg Creek Trail Association, BCT has evolved into a vibrant organization, embracing the many interests of the non-motorized trail community. While faces have changed over the years, our vision for the area has remained strong and clear.
Reaching this milestone has been possible thanks to the incredible talent, skills, and dedication of our trail community. BCT extends heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has contributed to our success and continues to support our efforts. Together, we’ve built something truly special.
Today, BCT offers some of the best trail experiences in the region, embodying our vision: to provide a place where the love of trails and the outdoors can be enjoyed by all, in every season.
And don’t forget—BCT swag makes perfect stocking stuffers! Our Trail Center now offers items featuring our 20th Anniversary logo. Grab yours and celebrate this milestone with us!
Tis’ The Season! Winter Trails Maintenance: We Need Your Help to Keep the Trails Thriving!
Support Bragg Creek Trails Today
The West Bragg Creek cross-country ski trails are some of the best around, and this season we’re thrilled to bring even more improvements! Skiers will enjoy widened trails for skate skiing, improved cornering, and smoother transitions across the trail network.
Our dedicated volunteers are ready to put in the long hours to keep these trails in top condition, and our equipment is tuned up and ready to roll. All that’s missing? Your support. Donations are essential to cover costs for fuel, machine maintenance, and other critical expenses.
Our winter fundraising goal is $50,000, which will support grooming for both cross- country ski trails and the single-track trails loved by bikers, snowshoers, walkers, and runners alike.
