Trail ratings
The trails outside of the park are exceptionally well maintained while maintaining the true character of the landscape. In the resort park there is the famous 5620 trail.

Environment
Canada’s electricity grid is 80% low carbon/renewable which does mean the lift networks in the park are pretty environmentally friendly. But there’s no real transfer options other than hiring a vehicle from the airport. Traveling from the UK you should consider offsetting your flight carbon footprint as flying is your only realistic option.
What do the trail types mean?
Trail types explained
Bike Park
Perhaps the easiest to get your head around. Predominantly uplifted serviced DH trails. Carefully designed, curated and maintained. Bike parks are usually pay to play in one for or another even if that is just the cost of the lift pass or uplift. UK examples include Bike Park Wales
Man Made
Generally not uplifted so you earn your descents on these trails with the climbs. Often based in forested areas specifically designed for mountain biking. Usually way marked and maintained. UK examples include Glentress forest.
Natural
Lines on maps that are often public rights of way. Not way marked so you will generally need navigational skills and a map. Not specific MTB trails so expect to share them with other trail users from walkers to horse riders. Not generally maintained other than by landowners or local authorities as rights of way. UK examples include bridleways.
