About the event
Escape From Hooved Man
Fat Tire Bike Festival
February Long Weekend 2024
Escape the Hooved Man is our annual winter adventure at Aski Holistic Adventures. It started with just a small group of friends and has grown ever since. We are a family-run adventure lodge located 55km from Cumberland House, SK, on the Saskatchewan River Delta. We are accessible only by a wilderness trail in the winter, or by boat in the summer. We offer all sorts of adventures, with shared cabin accommodations, home-cooked dinners, and a sauna. We are off-grid, therefore we have wood stoves, haul water from the river, use outhouses, and hunt/fish/garden for our food. This is our family home steeped in Cree culture and we invite you to be part of our family too!
Details:
We will meet you at the Vee trail parking location on February 17, 2024, at 12:00 p.m. with a snowmachine and a big sleigh to haul your supplies. (Pro tip, if you start seeing signs for 50km and higher, you have gone too far and missed the vee trail) You can start biking down the trail when you want. The first stage is an 18 km ride to the lodge. After a rest, meal, and the famous Hooved Man story, the adventure race begins at night, around 7-8 pm. We will send you down the trail in timed intervals. The race course is about 30 km long, with a new record to be set this year as this will be our longest course yet! There are some prizes to be won, but the main glory is not being captured by the Hooved Man!
