Fernie Trails Pass

The Fernie Trails Alliance (FTA) has officially launched their 2025 Fernie Trails Passes, providing an opportunity for trail users to contribute to the sustainability of Fernie’s world-class trail network. The annual pass not only ensures essential funding for trail maintenance and winter grooming but also offers perks for members, including access to FTA events and exclusive local discounts.

Why Purchase a Trails Pass?
The Fernie Trails Pass is more than just a contribution—it is an investment in the future of Fernie’s beloved trails. The FTA plays a crucial role in trail building, year-round maintenance, and winter grooming, all of which require consistent financial support.

Additionally, the Trails Pass includes a centralized digital waiver that helps protect landowners, reinforcing the FTA’s commitment to maintaining strong relationships with private and public landowners. By managing land user agreements and securing long-term access, the FTA ensures that Fernie’s trails remain open and well-maintained for years to come.

New Perks & Local Discounts
Alongside supporting the trail system, Trails Pass holders gain access to FTA-hosted events and receive exclusive discounts at participating local businesses. In early 2025, the FTA will announce a new lineup of perks and partnerships with businesses that support the local outdoor community.

Business owners interested in joining the program and offering exclusive discounts to pass holders are encouraged to reach out to social@fernietrailsalliance.com.

Big Changes for 2025: Auto-Renewal Memberships
To improve the Trails Pass experience, the FTA is introducing an auto-renew membership system starting in 2025. This change ensures that members never miss out on their benefits, making renewals seamless and predictable. Additionally, a one-time waiver will now be required, simplifying future registrations.

This streamlined approach will allow the FTA to better plan for the needs of Fernie’s growing trail community, ensuring continued improvements and sustainability.
