Biking off the Beaten Track

back country biking

From easy rides down gravel roads to spine-tingling excitement on mountain descents, there's a big variety of ways to enjoy biking in Vermont

For road biking off the beaten track
start with Vermont's backroads. Download a PDF copy of the Vermont Bikeways map here, or request a printed folder of the map using our Request Form and select “Biking ” from the ‘Interests’ dropdown. There's 9,000 miles or so to explore, filled with New England's best scenery and quaint villages. Your legs are the limit, and there's little traffic to contend with.

Mountain Biking for something more rugged
Vermont is a great destination for mountain biking.  There's everything from biking hot spots like Millstone Hill Touring Center in Barre Town and the booming bike haven of East Burke, where the non-profit Kingdom Trails has created a spectacular 100-mile mapped complex of off-road trails and single track, to biking and yoga retreats at Singletrack Mindfulness. Read more here and see what VMBA, the Vermont Mountain Biking Association has to offer.

Whether it's single track or downhill, trails, workshops, or rentals that you're after, read on for the what, where, when and how. Grab your gear and go.
