Biking

Our national forests offer mountain bikers miles of roads and trails on which to ride. There are wide, quiet roads for beginners to get acquainted with their bikes and there are challenging, arduous trails that will test the advanced rider.

If you plan to strike out on your own to explore with your bike, it would be wise to buy a National Forest map. Please respect the rights of private landowners and always ask permission before you ride on their land. Also, be aware of the wilderness boundaries when you are riding on the trails. Bicycles are not allowed in the wilderness areas.

Remember to wear protective gear when riding your mountain bike: helmet, gloves and sturdy shoes. Also plan on taking food, water, sunscreen and a basic tool kit on all of your outings. Always maintain control of your bicycle and be ready to stop. Watch for traffic on forest roads. Be aware of hikers and livestock along trails. As a courtesy, please step your bicycle off the downhill side of the trail and allow livestock to pass. Some stock may be afraid of your bicycle, so stay in plain view and speak softly.

Most road bikes cannot handle gravel roads, so make sure you check your route accordingly.

Mountain biking is allowed on all Forest Service Roads, but not on all trails. Please check trail regulations to see if bikes are allowed.
