Mountain Biking

Greenway Mountain Biking Trails

Greenway bike trails are mostly beginner-friendly and are suited for both new and experienced mountain bikers. Mountain bike loops are marked by a specific color. Trail markers are placed every 1/4 mile throughout trails and provide reference points that correspond to the trail map.

Please note that some MTB loops are directional and change seasonally. Be mindful of trailhead signage. As of September 18, 2024, Prairie Loop is running counter-clockwise and Paradise Loop is running clockwise.

Access mountain biking trails from the Adventure Road Entrance (104 Adventure Road) and the Blue Star Entrance (362 Handy White Way).

Helmets are required for all riders. No e-bikes are permitted on property.

Trail Closures

Bike Trails:
Bike trails are closed if water is pooling on the trails and/or the tread is wet enough that
bikes would damage the trails. These conditions are unsafe as well as detrimental to the
condition of the trails. Sustained winds above 20mph will also lead to trail closure.

Mountain Bike Skills Park:
The parameters for opening the Mountian Bike Skills Park are such that if it is damp enough for
dirt to stick to your feet it should stay closed. These parameters were given to us by the
company that built the park. During cooler weather, the tread and ramps can stay damp
throughout the day. Safety is the primary concern in closing the Skills Park.

To learn more about why we close trails at the Anne Springs Close Greenway, watch the short video here.

Tips for a Great Mountain Biking Experience

Mountain bikes are recommended.
No motorized bike or ebikes are allowed.
Some trail loops are one direction: please look for brown signs with directional arrows, and be aware of hikers and runners on the trail.
Be aware of oncoming cyclists on two-way traffic trails, and stay in control of your bike at all times.
There are NO paved trails for biking. Only balance bikes are allowed on the paved loop at the Dairy Barn entrance.
Bike wash stations and a hydration station are available adjacent to the Adventure Road Entrance parking lot.
