Who can ride the bike park?
Cranmore welcomes all ages and abilities in the Bike Park. Apart from an inability in, or unfamiliarity with, riding a bike, our park is the perfect place to gain or refine your downhill mountain biking skills. Each of our trails is built for progression, with optional side features for more advanced riders.
With 6 miles of machine-groomed flow trails, single-track technical trails, and a beginner's skills park, the Cranmore Bike Park was built so a group of guests with varying experience could all have a fun-filled, intimidation-free day on bikes, together.
Should I try the bike park?
There’s really no better place to test out the Cranmore Bike Park. It’s located in the center of a network of mountain biking trails, built by Ride NoCo and NEMBA, as well as directly connected to the MWV Rec Path.
So if you’re an avid mountain biker, looking to Strava a day of cross-country mountain bike miles, the Cranmore Bike Park makes an exhilarating warm up or cool down.
And if you’re new to the sport, or somewhere in between, the Bike Park and its employees are there to provide you a stress-free place to find your groove. Lift attendants will help you load and unload your bike on the chairlift, and our bike rangers can be found throughout the park for further assistance. And if you want to switch it up, those trails and the rec path are waiting for you.
