Saxon Hill in Burlington

This is New England's mountain biking mecca. As stated below, you could ride 2-3 days here on their well-marked and beautifully maintained trails. Everything from amazing sculpted trail (Sidewinder or Kitchel, anyone?) to miles of wooded singletrack to the VAST network of easy doubletrack. You can climb, descend, and bounce around to your heart's content, and Tim and his crew there will tell you exactly what to ride through based upon your time, skillset, and bike handling abilities.

This is the sweetest network of trails in Vermont. There is everything from intermediate swooping trails to technical down hill. Plenty for two full days of riding without repeating

Similar Trail: Flo Trail near Essex Junction Vt.

After moving to Colorado, I still raved about this to all my friends. When I came back in July and road with my buddy, it was even better than I remembered it. Every time I go there, I see changes and the hard work people put into this system. This place is truly the mountain bike heaven!

100 miles of single and double track and some of the pretties scenery in New England, what more do you need? I only wish I lived a bit closer so I could ride it every day. I've been riding here for 6 years now, and try to get up there at least every couple weeks. Maybe it's tame for 20 something daredevils with death wishes, or measure their manhood by the amount of scars they have, but if you just like riding trails in the woods, this is heaven. There is flat stuff, uphills and down. Skinny single tracks with roots and rocks, and buff rides through the softwoods that are like butter. There are many trails there, my favorites are Webs, Widowmaker (not as severe as its name) Fenceline, and Pastore Point. And I especially like an unmarked trail i discovered last summer.
