COVID-19 Updates

COVID-19 Update – Bike Park Update – June 12th, 2020

Hello Nitehawk Bike Park Fans,

As many of you know, Nitehawk experienced a significant Landslide on lower Temptation Run 3 weeks ago that has affected our Chairlift and a few of our Bike Trails. It pains us to officially say that due to this recent incident and social distancing guidelines not allowing us to shuttle riders, that the Nitehawk Bike Park will remain closed at this time.

We are hopeful that as the Province of Alberta and Provincial Health Authorities work towards the third stage of re-opening in the months ahead; that the guidelines and requirements may be relaxed enough to allow us to shuttle riders once again.

We want you to know that this decision was not made lightly and it hurts us, more than you know, to not be able to open the Nitehawk Bike Park at this time. However, we do want you to know that we will be proceeding with our Summer Bike Camps at another location this summer; so please watch for Registration Opening Soon.

We will be continuing to work to determine next steps with the Geotechnical Engineering Firm we have engaged to help us with the chairlift and affected slope to find solutions. And we can’t wait to welcome you back to the Nitehawk Bike Park as soon as possible; with the safety of You, our Guests, and our Staff as our number one priority.

Thank you for your patience, understanding and continued support. We look forward to seeing you all back on the trails sooner than later.

Sincerely,

Johnathan Clarkson
Acting General Manager
Nitehawk Year-round Adventure Park
