Terrace

Terrace is surrounded by mountains and the Skeena River, with two of its best-known riding areas found close to town: Terrace Mountain, overlooking the valley with a mix of cross-country and all-mountain trails, and Copper Mountain in the adjacent Thornhill neighbourhood, known for downhill and freeride terrain.

Further afield, Maroon Mountain and Seven Sisters offer remote, adventure-style riding for those looking to explore deeper into the Coast Mountain landscape.

Terrace's trails are on the unceded traditional Ts’msyen territory of the Kitsumkalum and Kitselas First Nations.
