BETTER than WHISTLER?! (Why Cumberland has World Class Mountain Biking Trails)

Nestled away on Vancouver Island is the not-so-hidden gem of the Cumberland mountain biking trail network. It has seen a boom in growth in the past few years, and even a migration of ex- Whistler residents who have been lured in by something special.
Cumberland is where I fell in love with mountain biking, so I am a little biased. But maybe after you watch this video, you'll decide to go ride there yourself... and maybe after you ride there, you'll start to see the "something special" that makes Cumberland so great. From enjoying the technical rock slabs, to the freeride drops and jumps, and even the flowy berms - Cumberland truly is a global mountain biking destination.
Trails in this video: Roughneck // Gingersnaps // Truffle Shuffle // Teapot // Crafty Butcher // Bonestorm
**DISCLAIMER - I changed some camera settings right before this trip, and I'm not super happy with how the footage turned out. The stabilization didn't quite keep up anytime the light got even slightly low, and you'll probably see that in certain parts of the video. I actually excluded some of my favorite segments of trail from this video because the footage was just too shaky and grainy. This will affect my next video too, which was shot on the same trip. The good news is that I've gone back to my old settings and future videos should be better. Thanks!**

Cumberland and Forbidden plateau are 2 awesome places. I lived in Comox 6 years and never felt the need to go to Whistler once. If I wanted to do lift rides there was always Mt Washington

I rode cumberland my first time a few days ago, got up to Old Vanilla on my hardtail and had lots of fun getting muddy. I'm from Nanaimo and found Cumberland trail network to be enormous and somewhat overwhelming size wise and how many options of trails to choose from. I'm doing alright on the blue and the odd black considering my hometown trail in Qualicum Beach was a connector to cross a trestle bridge to get to the skatepark easier without climbing as my only bike was my BMX, so I havent even ridden Qualicum's few actual MTB trails, only recently rode some of Hammerfest. As for people leaving Whistler, I could see that, cost of living and rent and whatnot would be a factor, also you have a lift accessible bike park at Mt. Washington that I want to ride at some point not sure if its comparable to Whistler either but you combine that with the amount of trails in and around Cumberland, Vortex, Forbidden Plateau, and you've got pretty stiff competition. Only thing this island needs to stomp the mainland entirely would be a solid indoor bikepark that caters to both MTB and BMX similar to the North Shore bike park in North Van. However, we do have a special place in Nanoose called Send Air, in a very large building are some big wooden kickers with airbag landings to practice dirt jumping and or Big Air stuff in general, they are open to BMX riding there too. Great video, thanks for the Island coverage.

Valid points! I would love an indoor park - but I also don’t mind riding in a little light rain.

They’re killer intermediate trails but let’s be honest, they’re nothing on the blacks in the Whistler valley.
