Adaptive Adventures provides outdoor recreation for people with any disabilities of all ages. We hike. We bike. We kayak. We paddle board. We ski. We snowshoe.

We are adventurers! We get outdoors! Adaptive Adventures for people with disabilities

One of the best things about a TrailRider is that it doesn’t have to be one-size-fits-all. We can adapt it to the individual so you can feel supported, comfortable, and secure while exploring the outdoors.
Here are just some of the ways we can customize a TrailRider for your needs:

🧩 Foam Support: We can use different types and shapes of foam wherever extra cushioning, positioning, or support is needed. Sometimes a little foam in the right place makes a BIG difference!

↔️ Lateral Side Boards: For people who tend to lean more to one side, side boards can provide additional support and help with positioning.

🔗 Hard & Soft Straps: Straps can be used to help with positioning and provide additional support, as well as keep foam and other adaptations securely in place.

🧠 Neck Support: Neck rests or firm foam supports can be attached to the TrailRider to provide additional head and neck support and help maintain a comfortable position throughout the adventure.

💪 Kidney Straps: When more support is needed through the midsection, kidney straps can provide additional stability and help keep the rider comfortably positioned.

🧣 Warmth & Comfort: Blankets and wilderness bags can help keep riders warm and comfortable, especially when spending extended time outdoors.

⚙️ Adjustable Positioning: We can adjust the armrests up, down, forward, or backward; move the backrest forward or backward; and position the leg rests closer or farther away to help create a more comfortable fit.

At the end of the day, the TrailRider is just the starting point. The real magic is in figuring out what each person needs to feel comfortable, supported, and ready for adventure.
Because getting outside shouldn’t mean trying to fit yourself into the equipment, the equipment should be adapted to help fit you. 🌲💚

This spring started out rough. When we got the call about the theft of our bikes, it felt like someone had tried to take the outdoors away from people who need it most. Things felt bleak. We weren’t sure what we would be able to do, much less how we would do it.

Then we remembered our community.

And you showed up. Hundreds of people came together and said, “Not here. Not when I can make a difference.” And what an incredible difference you made.

Because of you, our Adaptive Wilderness Adventure on the KVR happened with new bikes, renewed hope, and more enthusiasm than we could have imagined. Your generosity helped get people back on the trails and gave us so much to celebrate.

When we look back on that ride and everything it meant, we think of you.

Thank you for believing in what we do and helping make the outdoors possible for so many people. #

There are a few things we just don’t do around here!

We don’t say no. We say, “Let’s figure it out.”
We don’t make assumptions. We listen, ask questions, and learn what works for you.
We don’t believe there’s only one way to adventure. There’s always another way to get there.
We don’t expect you to fit the equipment. We find ways to make the equipment work for you.

We don’t do it for you. We do it with you.
Because sometimes adventure starts with a simple question:
“What if we tried it this way?”

What’s something you’ve always wanted to try outside? Drop it in the comments. You never know where a “what if?” might take you.

What a day! 🚵‍♀️💙
A few weeks ago we helped host an incredible day of adaptive mountain biking in Prince George! From getting out on the trails to trying adaptive equipment and sharing plenty of smiles along the way, it was so great to see riders getting out there and enjoying the experience.

A huge thank you to everyone who came out, volunteered, coached, supported, and helped make the day possible.

And another big thank you to our amazing partners and sponsors:

We’re grateful for your support in making adaptive riding more accessible in our community. 💙🚵

All the team discovered through the making of this reel is that the sound a trail rider makes is up to interpretation...

It’s kinda chic to support making the outdoors accessible for everyone 🌲🚴🏽‍♂️🚁🏔️🏕️🌄💛

When it comes to the outdoors, everyone should be able to enjoy it! Weather that’s through adaptive hiking, biking, overnight trips, specialized equipment, inclusivity, community, or just being invited, everyone deserves to enjoy the outdoors, it’s kinda chic 💛

This year Liam not only went on his first ever camping trip, but got to scale mountains and make a dream come true.
For years we have partnered with creating our annual 'Fire in the Mountains' Trip. This is more then a partnership, this has truly grown into a community that creates amazing access into the wilderness for everyone through grit, determination, smiles, laughter, and a dream.
These trips mean more than just an adventure. They mean access, breaking own barriers, creating inclusion, evolving awareness, developing community, and highlight that with anything can be possible together.
Liam shared his story with us and we want to show the world that accessing the outdoors is for everyone!
