Mountain Biking Rush Pond

****   Add a review
#121 of 301 mountain bike trails in New York
#4,854 in the world

Map says one trail, but there are a network of trails along the main trail west of the pond. Intermediate riding as there is some elevation, nothing heavy, nothing technical other than some roots, and rocks. Only 2.2 miles from end to end, but a nice little trail to bike and get the blood moving.

    They have really added to this trail. My last report(2015), those trails are hardly even used any more. Now there are another 4 miles or so of machine built high end flow trails. There aren't any other smooth, bermed out trails to compare with anywhere nearby. Lots of bumps and jumps, but not too technical. Great counterpoint to Gurney lane (my favorite) right across the road. While Gurney is slightly more techy and Rush Pond is man made machine built smotthness

    Beginner trail. There is a hill a little way in, but this is a 10 foot wide cider trail with no roots or rocks unless you choose to go off trail. Nice views around pond. Some of the side trails are nice, but not too hard. Sneak over to Queensbury High school cross countrycourse. Not too hard, nice trail, and a couple hills

    Easy surface to ride, not that long, nothing technical, but was fun to ride. Wanted to check out some place new, and was surprised to see as many trails here as I did.
