Mountain Bike! Northern California and Nevada

Northern California has some of the best mountain biking terrain in the country. From glacial peaks to coastal hills, from wide-open valleys to desert canyons and forested foothills, this region contains a variety of trails. Tame bike paths, rolling fire trails, and challenging single-tracks combine to make Northern California a paradise for mountain bikers of all abilities. Beginner, intermediate, and advanced fat-tire buffs will find a plethora of trails to choose from, many within the borders of recreation areas and county, state, and national forests.
