"With new updates, this full-colour guidebook introduces backcountry cyclists to the exciting and increasingly popular world of bikepacking.

Before his untimely death from cancer in 2018, veteran rider and passionate cyclist Ryan Correy (two-time finisher of the Tour Divide, founder of Bikepack Canada, and author of A Purpose Ridden) pedalled his way through the most popular national parks in the Canadian Rockies in order to complete his work on this unique guidebook. Featuring routes in Waterton, Kananaskis, Banff, Kootenay, Yoho, and Jasper, Bikepacking in the Canadian Rockies will take biking enthusiasts on beginner, intermediate, and expert journeys in the following locations:

Front Range

496 km gravel grind down the Alberta foothills High Rockies

183 km opening sampler for the Great Divide Beaverfoot

389 km expedition along the Rocky Mountain Trench Devil's Gap

214 km backcountry passage into Banff National Park Highwood

357 km over Highwood Pass into the Crowsnest region Castle

266 km circumnavigation of Waterton and Castle parks Top of the World

347 km of remote climbs in the East Kootenays Flathead Valley

291 km through ""Grizzly Bear Alley"" in southeast British Columbia Three Point

173 km hike-a-bike adventure around Kananaskis Icefields Parkway (in winter)

291 km fat-bike trek up the world-renowned Highway 93 to Jasper

The result of Correy's remarkable dedication is an unparalleled collection of ten ambitious, multi-day routes complete with directional cues, detailed maps, a helpful Bikepacking 101 section, rich photography, and personal stories that will stoke the curiosity of both the beginner and the experienced backcountry rider."
