May 25, 2024
The Cranbrook Gravel Grind (CGG), proudly presented by Anything Goes Event Series, will once again shed light on the world class gravel riding that surrounds Cranbrook. Welcoming any and all riders to the third annual event, the 65- and 112-kilometre routes will showcase the Cranbrook Community Forest, Chief Isadore Trail Network, Trans Canada Trail, and Mount Baker Forestry Service Roads. The CGG offers an incredibly unique experience for new and experienced riders with a course that is designed for cyclists with physical impairment in mind, suiting cyclists of all abilities, hand-cyclists and tandems included.

The Course

The Gold Rush Loop: 65km, 900m elevation

From local riders to BC Epic adventurers the Gold Rush Loop holds a very special place in many people's heart, and all for the same reasons. Starting and finishing at Idlewild Park, the Gold Rush Loop features some of the most unique and beautiful gravel riding that is unlike any other course in the province.

The Big Foot Loop: 112km, 1,300m elevation

Just like the legend itself, the Big Foot Loop is the 8th wonder of the world as it showcases some of the best 112km you never knew existed. The Big Foot Loop will take you through the hidden gems of the Cranbrook Community Forest, Cheif Isadore and Trans Canada Trail before winding you through beautiful farm land and epic views of the Steeples mountain range and Lake Koocanusa. All that before turning you around and sending you right back to where you started the day at Idlewild Park. You'll believe us when you ride it, this course is one you'll never forget.
