Three Towers Mountain Bike Trail

Admin Tourism North Bay — Wed, 19 Jun 2024 20:00:17 +0000

The Three Towers mountain bike trail system is the home of excellent flow, unique rock features, and extremely fun off road and downhill riding. The mountain bike park has over 13km of fast, winding and flowy trails and is perfect for mountain bikers of all ages and skill levels. It’s one of the best places in North Bay for mountain biking beginners, due to the vibrant and supportive local mountain biking community, skills training opportunities and family-friendly events.

The two-way trail system rolls over rock slabs, teeters on rock skinnies, climbs steep rocks, and floats around natural bedrock berms, all features of the ancient Canadian Shield. Warm-up or build your skills on the skills pump track right at the trailhead.

Northern Ontario Mountain Biking Destination

Professional cyclist Emily Batty, took to the Three Towers trail in 2023 and had nothing but glowing words to say about it… “I had an amazing time and I truly think this is a destination worth coming to and checking out,” said Emily. And continues on to say, “The three tower trails here were so much fun. The rock and the terrain that this area has to offer—to ride and look for new lines to challenge myself as a professional while riding with beginners was amazing.”
