What is Trail Fest?

Spend a weekend roughing it on some of Canada's attractive off-road trails. You and your passengers will take trails that truly test your driving expertise. Trails are categorized by their overall level of difficulty, and feature a variety of terrain conditions.

At Trail Fest, you'll find out how best to handle the trails from experts who really know how to drive them.

For those with no previous off-road experience, attend Off-Roading 101 at Trail Fest for a helpful introduction before you hit the trails.
