Mountain Biking Jordan Creek Parkway

***   Add a review
#97 of 293 mountain bike trails in Pennsylvania
#3,640 in the world

On any given day this park can be very busy with Baseball , Tennis , Frisbee Golf
and Biking. On Wednesdays there are local bike shop group rides. The trails are
used for hiking and trail running and several trails will cross or follow the Frisbee
Golf fairways. There is one main jeep trail from the trail head and all trails lead
back to it. You shouldn't get lost. There are 2 climbs and one is long and
relatively steep the other is more technical. There are several smaller climbs.
The trails are used hard and most are crossed with roots and pocked with rocks.
Average speed is about 6 mph. The entire system leans more to the technical
side of MTBing but remains easy. Many log crossings , a few switchbacks , a few
fast areas. Over all , a great place to get started or learn. Watch out for hikers
and their dogs. Give the frisbee golfers some courtesy and please take out
everything you bring in.
