The Golden Triangle

Come explore the Golden Triangle

The 350km Golden Triangle Trail connects the communities of Whitecourt, Fox Creek and Swan Hills. This Alberta sled trail consists of varied terrain with warm-up shelters located throughout the trail system. 

COME check out the award-winning trails that will provide hours of enjoyment and allow you to get out in our winter wonderland.

We recommend riding the Triangle between February 1st and March 30th of the sledding season.    PLEASE NOTE: Certain portions may or may not be cleaned or groomed, as well, please beware of daily hazards of trees and debris that have fallen and may impede crossing.  We will make every effort to advise you the status of our trail conditions weekly.  Thank you for riding the Golden Triangle.

PLEASE NOTE:  If you are planning to ride the 350 km Golden Triangle, it is recommended to be of intermediate to advanced skill level with the long rides between communities as well as there are many hills, water bodies and tougher terrain.  It takes approximately 10-12 hours to ride the whole Golden Triangle in one day and that is with higher speeds.  Please consider splitting up the ride to 2 days.  You will need to stop for fuel in each of the communities.  Please note:  All bodies of water are at your own risk.  Our trails stop at the banks. 

Don’t forget about joining us in the 2025 Iron Sledder Challenge! Participate in all 3 events on the Golden Triangle and you could become the 2025 Iron Sledder and have a chance to win up to $1000.00.
