We will chalk out the course at Goldbar Park on Saturday morning so you can easily follow the course and we’ll put up signs on Saturday to help you navigate the Goldbar course.

Goldbar Park runs along the North Saskatchewan River and is home to hard pack trails, technical singletrack, and the infamous Esso Hill. Enjoyed by Edmontonians in both summer and winter, the park is a gathering place for all who love the river valley. You do not get any closer to the river than Goldbar Park.
