Popular Montesano Mountain Biking Trails
• 75 ★ 4.0 • 2,244 ft • 0 ft • 137 •
This is the start of the climb up from Lk. Sylvia to the , A-B, and other trails that loop back to Sylvia Creek.
• 95 ★ 4.2 • 4,006 ft • 124 ft • 133 •
I think this is the classic Montesano trail. Natural terrain, narrow trail bed but open views. Good in both directions going to or coming from the other trails in the system. Come up the , PineWinder, or the . Great end to a ride from...
• 100 ★ 4.6 • 1,234 ft • 0 ft • 115 •
Nice little addition to trails that spur off of the Sylvia Ridge Trail. This one has a few smaller drops, some stump jumps and a small gap jump. All jumps are optional with ride arounds.
• 100 ★ 5.0 • 1,013 ft • 16 ft • 102 •
Popular green difficulty singletrack. This mountain bike primary trail can be used downhill primary and has a easy overall physical rating with a 16 ft green climb. On average it takes 1 minutes to complete this trail.
• 100 ★ 4.3 • 2,805 ft • 7 ft • 101 •
After the clear cut the contractors worked with us to clear an upper route that connects with the A-B Trail. The new routing should be good once we get some rain and pack the dirt in. There will be some good sweepers and intermediate drops.
• 95 ★ 4.4 • 1,205 ft • 17 ft • 99 •
We're on a roll! We had to grub out the clear cut to clear the old trails. So why not grub a new one in? It's just a collection of rolls and sweeping turns with one small drop into a left climb. Once it packs in it should be fun.
• 85 ★ 4.4 • 2,522 ft • 66 ft • 92 •
Popular blue difficulty singletrack. This mountain bike primary trail can be used both directions and has a moderate overall physical rating with a 66 ft blue climb. On average it takes 10 minutes to complete this trail.
• 100 ★ 4.8 • 1,836 ft • 46 ft • 89 •
This is the first portion of a trail that is a work in progress to lessen the amount of gravel time spent traversing to/from the outer reaches of the City Forest. Particularly between Sylvia Ridge and X720 Trails. This is a traverse...
