Mountain Biking Chadwick
#56 of 169 mountain bike trails in Missouri
Chadwick offers a vast selection of rocky, technical trails that network together in a 7680-acre park managed by the forest service. It is a challenging place originally developed by motocycle riders. When the ATV was invented some trails widened, but there is still plenty of solid singletrack to hit on each visit. Keep a map with you. A must-do for any local, Chadwick will make you a better rider if not a bloody one.
You might talk to some local riders at a local bike shop like Cycles Unlimited in Springfield before going for the first time. Fees are $3 per day or $20 for the year.

From Springfield, drive south on Hwy. 65 for 14 miles to Ozark. Take the State Highway F exit, and go east through Ozark, Sparta, Oldfield, and finally Chadwick (don't blink). You MUST buy a permit at Kay's store in Chadwick (it's the only store) and turn south on H highway. Get a trail map from Kay's too. From Chadwick, take Hwy 125 south 1.5 miles; turn southwest onto Hwy H for about 2 miles. You should start to see brown road signs to guide you. You will encounter two campgrounds on the west side of the road about five miles from the H highway junction, Camp Ridge and Cobb Ridge. Park and ride from either campground.
