Northwest Cup 2025 – Summit at Snoqualmie

The NW Cup (short for Northwest Cup) is hands down one of our favorite mountain bike racing series in the US. And last year, there’s big news—downhill mountain biking is back at Summit at Snoqualmie after a 26-year hiatus! Now part of the NW Cup, The Summit bike park offers over 1,000 feet of lift-served vertical and miles of terrain to explore. With their renewed investment in mountain biking, it’s the perfect venue for the return of such a prestigious event.
