OVER VIEW
At Trips For Kids (TFK) Vancouver we believe that the sport of mountain biking can teach us a lot of valuable lessons. We aim to make a positive impact on the way children and youth view their community, the environment, and themselves while having a lot of fun.
The forests and mountains surrounding Vancouver offer the perfect opportunity for our mountain biking adventures that introduce young people to a world they may not have the opportunity to explore.
Our day-long and overnight mountain bike trips incorporate off-road cycling skills, trail etiquette, and environmental education/stewardship in a fun and active atmosphere. Through this unique opportunity we aim to inspire children and youth to the possibilities of his or her own potential.
Trips for Kids relies on the generous support of volunteers, donors and community partnerships.
