Here in Squamish, we have a saying: “All time, fall time.”

And for good reason.

As summer crowds fade and the first rains return, our trails come alive with hero dirt – that perfect combo of moisture and grip that makes every ride better. Unlike clay-heavy destinations that turn to slop in the rain, Squamish’s glacial till thrives in the wet. Add in expert trail-building and you’ve got prime conditions all season long.

Ride From the Shop, or Catch the Shuttle

Start your ride at Dialed In Cycling, where you’ll find:

• Free parking near the Alice Lake network – choose from two trailheads to begin your ride!
• Premium mountain bike + eMTB rentals
• Certified guiding + coaching
• Full bike service + tuning
• The perfect post-ride base

Want to maximize your vert?

The Shred Shuttle picks up right from our shop and drops you at the top of Meadow of the Grizzly, deep in the Diamond Head zone. From there, ride your pick of world-class descents – from iconic slabs on 19th Hole, to the flow of Half Nelson, or Squamish’s newest gem: Airplane Mode.

Ride singletrack all the way back to Dialed In. No car needed.

Stay Trailside at MTN Fun Basecamp

Skip the drive entirely – stay on-site at MTN Fun, just steps from the shop and the trails. Choose from cozy hotel rooms or RV + tent sites nestled in the forest near Alice Lake. You’ll be waking up in mountain bike paradise.
