Gooseberry Overnighter 55kms
Spring in Alberta means muddy trails, lingering snow, and cyclists desperately trying to convince themselves it’s “basically summer.” Fortunately, Gooseberry Campground offers the perfect early-season escape for anyone craving a simple bike overnight before the mountains are fully rideable. With wide highway shoulders, quiet walk-in campsites, campfires, coffee, good people, and one suspiciously generous tailwind, this trip turned into a reminder that bike adventures don’t need to be epic sufferfests to be memorable — sometimes you just need a bike, a tent, and an excuse to get outside.
