Edmonton Accommodation
 
  When looking for accommodation, consider searching in "Sherwood Park" or "Strathcona County", as this area is slightly closer to the race trails than Edmonton.  

The Ramada Sherwood Park is a four minute drive from Festival Place Sherwood Park.  The Ramada Inn Sherwood Park is approximately 25 minutes from the Stadium (start line for the short events) and from the Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Village (start line for the 55 and 31 km events). 

To receive the Birkie rate, book directly with the Ramada Sherwood Park: (780) 467-6727.  Ask for the Birkie rate, which includes self-serve continental breakfast and ski waxing area on lower level.  The breakfast area will stay open until 11:00 a.m. on Sunday morning.  Limited number of rooms available.  For other nearby hotel options and travel planning in the area, call Travel Alberta 1-800-661-8888 or Edmonton Tourism 1-800-463-4667. www.edmonton.com/tourism/
