Mountain Biking Salmon Falls

#24 of 121 mountain bike trails in Maine
#3,358 in the world

the trails is alot of fun, some big hills challenging to ride up yet fun to ride down.
the trails loop and connect to each other. there are some tech spots, some picnic
table and nice scenery. there are a few swampy sections on the way out with
bridges over them fun trails not many people know about but they are state
owned and legal for bikes.

    Great place to take the kids and teach them to ride. Lots of roots and rocks and small obstacles. We did the entire loop twice in three hours. Great views, decent marked trail. A few less traveled trails had large trees across them. Anxious to go back by myself and ride it fast. A few water holes with good bridges across them. Caution: thick layer of leaves on trails hide roots, rocks and sticks. Had a few wipeouts in the group.

    I agree with other reviews. We'll marked network. Keyosk just down from parking area has a map. Rocky and rooted start turns into good riding in a few hundred yards. A little sloppy in few areas, plank bridges over worst spots make things fun, mostly Hemlock needle covered trails.

    Great little gem!! Nothing super technical or fast. Good riding and little if any traffic. A few bridges and tricky rock sections. If you take every trail you will be busy for about two hours.Great views along the river. Bring your trunks and jump off the old bridge footing across the river.

    A great place to ride!
    Many trails are overgrown but you can still ride them. Will be going back again soon.

    Well kept trails- some nice flowy single track and enough technical stuff to keep it interesting.
