Mountain Biking Finger Lakes National Forest

**   Add a review
#171 of 302 mountain bike trails in New York
#7,171 in the world

The trails are all nice recommend back bone trail this is open to horses and bikes as wells as
hiking. Burnt hill trail from campgrounds is nice even ground fast. The best way is to get a map
at the campgrounds they are free and start exploring the trails are all marked. Some trails are
not open to bikes however I have ridden them all and have come along DEC and forest rangers
and no one has stopped me or asked be not to ride I feel they are happy people are using the
trails. Primitive camping is available the only place you have to pay is in the actual campgrounds.
Very cheap per night. Rest rooms available but no water. And camping any were else on forest is
free.
