Hold on, don’t lose traction — get a GRIP! It’s time to ride! With over 250 trails within 45 minutes of Killington this trail guide will show you all there is to discover — and enhance your experience with tips on where to go, what to do and where to go to refuel. (We can’t promise it will narrow down the choices, however! In fact, it’ll probable just add to your list of “must see” destinations. The good news is they’re all nearby!)
Central Vermont is quickly becoming a popular hub for mountain biking in the East. The expansion of trails over the past decade has been exponential — and riders are beginning to flock to local areas as soon as the snow melts. Riders of all ages and abilities from near and far make the entire region vibrant.
This guide has been published thanks to local business support for local mountain biking.
Enjoy the flow, keep your GRIP!
Sincerely,
Polly Mikula
