Red Deer’s Social Diversion Team ready
January 20, 2021
Red Deer’s new Social Diversion Team is ready to respond to calls of individuals in distress as it officially launches this week.
The Mountain Bike Park is located east of Gaetz Avenue and west of Riverside Drive. The south entrance is located off 77 Street and the north entrance is located at the corner of 48 Avenue and 79 Street.
The park includes a large area of cross country single track trails and some trails include Technical Terrain Features (TTF’s). TTF’s include dirt jumps, berms, boardwalks, wood features, jumps, gaps, and free-ride stunts. Mountain Bike Park Trails are rated similar to ski resorts with: green circle markers representing the easiest trails, blue squares representing more progressive and challenging trails, and single/ double black diamonds representing trails with advanced technical terrain features. Please refer to the Red Deer Mountain Bike Park Map (pdf) and TRAILFORKS for more details and current site conditions.
The City has an agreement in place for the construction, operations and maintenance of the mountain bike park and the Technical Terrain Features within the park. The trails and features within the park are built and is maintained by volunteers from the ADEC in cooperation with The City of Red Deer. Frequent users are encouraged to join and support the club https://www.facebook.com/albertadownhillenduroclub.
All stunt and jump construction is overseen by representatives of the AEDC who ensure stunts are properly designed, constructed, and receive regular maintenance.
For more information, please refer to the Red Deer Mountain Bike Park Trail Map (pdf) .
