What is it?

An opportunity for trail users to share how they experience Fernie’s trails, what they value most about the network, and where they see opportunities for improvement. The evening will include interactive questions to attendees and small-group discussions, followed by an overview of how the FTA approaches trail planning and project priorities.

Who can attend?

Everyone! Whether you hike, bike, run, walk, snowshoe, ski, volunteer, or simply enjoy our trails, your perspective is important. You don’t need to be an FTA member or have any past involvement with the FTA.

Why attend?

Your feedback helps us better understand how the community uses and values the trail network. You’ll also learn more about the considerations that shape trail maintenance, development and future planning decisions, including stewardship, user experience, funding, landowner requirements and organizational capacity.

Pizza and beverages provided! Please share, and we hope to see you there!
