Description: There's enough riding here to last a lifetime. The entire reservation is surrounded by gravel fire roads and is interconnected all the way through with literally a hundred or more single track routes. Each route has its own number (make sure to check out and take a map at the beginning so you don't get lost, which is easy!) and vary from muddy swamp rides to boulder-infested hill climbs to crazy paths filled with logs, rocks, hills, trees, large animals, and more! If you follow the signs to Dungeon Road leading to Dungeon Rock, you'll also be treated to some awesome hiking, which is a nice way to take a break. Strongly recommended! This place has everything.

Varying technical skills. The climb to the stone tower from the west side gives quite a good work out. The cave the the dungeon rd is another nice place to check out.

It's true, this place does have everything. Second time riding, and still exploring the many trails available. With the fire roads running throughout, you won't get completely lost as you'll run back into one eventually. Trails are marked pretty well, and with the intersections numbered, should be able to put together a nice long ride after more exploration

Best trail riding I have done. With the addition of new trails recently cut by Diesel Bikes, there are excellent flow loops possible, from 1hr to 3-4hr epic rides. Drops from 1' to 10' or bigger, short steep rolls to huge 20' rolls with a flick at the end. The best part is that almost everything is a natural formation. It is pretty amazing, especially if you can find someone who really knows the trails.

Huge rocks everywhere, it's like a big playground, fun drops and climbs, good scenery, good singletrack, some log rides here and there, overall very fun

I believe the best riding comes from the other side of Walden Pond (Lynn). I park in the Naked Fish parking lot off Route 1 (Just be respectful of their business because they have been finickey in the past with Bikers parking there) and then you can access the trails from the other side of the powerlines. Bowridge is the best area as far as rock climbs, drops and technical riding. There are a lot of places to mess around. There was a new trail which was cut relatively recently which bypasses the develpment going in and that is very technical and borderline unridable in some areas but it has an amazing view of the whole reservation. Though once that trail is ridden on a bunch more times it will become more navigable. I've been riding here for about 8 years now.
