It’s one of the longest running mountain bike festivals in North America. The venerable Kootenay Fat Tire Festival, three days of chills and spills, all on the mighty trails of Morning Mountain just outside of Nelson. Bring the kiddies, bring your bike, and getting ready for some seriously good times.
