Adventure meets progression — a jungle week with Katrina Strand on the trail, local guides who ride these tracks daily, and the full Meraki crew behind it.
Same all-inclusive Costa Rica week we always run — shuttled bike-park laps, technical jungle singletrack, big descents, great food, lodging close to the trails — with Katrina on the trail the whole time. She's there to help you ride new terrain with more confidence, not to turn the week into a clinic where you're standing around.
The days mix real riding with actual coaching: body position, braking, better lines, the stuff that sticks when the dirt changes under you. Local guides who ride these trails daily keep the pace honest. You eat well, sleep well, and finish the day with a crew that's in it together.
It's built for intermediate and advanced riders (18+) who want to push a bit without getting dropped. Come solo or bring friends. Want the same week for your own group on different dates? Email us — Katrina does custom bookings too.

Katrina makes you feel comfortable the moment you hit the trail. Whistler-based, Vancouver-raised, she spent 15 years as a pro athlete and brand ambassador, represented Canada at the Downhill World Championships, and helped get women's-specific mountain-bike events off the ground. Human Kinetics from UBC, Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist, and a coach riders actually want to ride with.
She'll meet you where you are — working a feature, finding flow, or just getting you to trust the bike on dirt that doesn't behave like home. Small wins count. So do the days you leave tired, laughing, and a little braver than you arrived.
