New downhill trails update:
We are very pleased to have two beautiful new trails open and already being used! OllieBot is an advanced double black diamond trail which opened Saturday June 17th. ‘To Be Named' opened Sunday July 9th and is a intermediate blue trail with tons of berm-y goodness. In addition to these two new trails, Switchcraft and Skyline have both been updated and are looking awesome! Our trail crew and regular staff are out on trails doing regular maintenance so say hi to Braden, Rory, Nick, and Ella if you see them out working on the trails. Please feel free to flag trail issues to us at info@thekeppoch.ca.
Lodge & Shuttle Rentals:
A reminder that the lodge is available for rent for any occasion: Bachelor/bachelorette parties, birthdays, retirement get togethers, you name it! We even do overnight rentals. The shuttle can also be booked privately on weekdays for three- or four-hour time slots in the afternoons or early evenings, and on weekends after 4 p.m. Email us at info@thekeppoch.ca for more information on booking either the lodge or shuttle.
