A brief look at some of our projects

Morfee mountain downhill

Running from Morfee Mountain’s alpine to the base of the mountain and Morfee Lake, the trail network was completed in 2023 and is British Columbia’s longest shuttle access downhill trail.

Shuttle access from Morfee Mountain Road provides 14 km of trail with approximately 850 m of decent on the main ridgeline trail. This trail starts with a 6 km ride through the alpine with amazing views of the Northern Rockies range before starting the main descent. This trail is a blue and black-rated downhill track suitable for novice to experienced riders. For shorter ride options, a 1 km up track provides access to 4 km of downhill trail.

Portions of the trail network are suitable for multiple uses, providing hiking opportunities right next to Mackenzie.

Planning for this development commenced in 2017 in response to a local interest for more mountain bike specific trails in Mackenzie.

We would like to thank the granting agencies and our sponsors for making this project possible. A huge thank you to McLeod Lake Mackenzie Community Forest, Recreation Sites and Trails BC, the BC Rural Dividend Program, Community Economic Recovery Infrastructure Program, Coastal Gaslink, and Northern BC Tourism Association.

Ezekiel Climbing Area

A unique granite outcrop with stunning views looking north and south along the Rocky Mountain Trench, accessed at 18 km on the community connector. MORATA has begun the development of a trail and the crag as a sport climbing area. Further future expansion is planned for a campsite along a nearby lake.
