The hardest kilometers now come last.
The 2026 RBC GranFondo Whistler Forte introduces an entirely new challenge. Instead of the traditional climb up Cypress Mountain, the route follows the full Sea to Sky Highway before finishing with the demanding ascent up Callaghan Valley Road in Whistler.
More than 150 kilometers. Nearly 2,800 meters of climbing. One final climb that rewards riders who still have something left.
This Artifact captures the complete 2026 Forte route in sculpted topography and precision detail.
From the rollout in Vancouver to the sweeping coastline of the Sea to Sky Highway and the decisive final ascent into Callaghan, every climb, contour, and mountain pass is preserved in a physical form you can hold.

Why It Matters
The 2026 Forte isn't about surviving an early climb anymore.
It's about patience.
Holding back through the opening kilometers. Finding your rhythm along the Sea to Sky. Saving enough for the climb that everyone will remember.
Callaghan isn't simply the finish. It's the final exam.
This piece exists so the effort doesn't disappear into a ride file.
Built for riders who earned every meter.
Type II.
