Description: Ravenshoe is flat with almost no uphills. It consists of a network of very technical single tracks with various stunts and jumps to entertain advanced riders. The loction has a map in the parking lot and consists of a square forest boardered by McCowan Road on the east, Ravenshoe road on the north, Farmland on the west and Manor Ridge Trail on the south. It is next to impossible to get lost. The exit to the main parking lot is marked on all trails. There is a donation box at the trail head. Be sure to leave a couple of dollars for the folks building the trails.

WOW is all I can say about Ravenshoe! I am new to mountain biking and Ravenshoe was a great start. I don't have my own mountain bike so I had to rent one from Exclusive Sport Rentals (www.SportRentals.ca) located in Vaughan. I ended up renting the Norco Storm 6.1 which has a front suspension, and I must admit, in order to fully enjoy the trails at Ravenshoe, a bike with dual-suspension is a must! Big meany has lots of step-up roots and logs so a dual-suspension would help a lot. But overall I was very happy with Ravenshoe in Newmarket.

Great trails, lots of tight turns through close trees. Little elevation change but lots of step-up roots and logs in the more technical trails (big meany and skunk loop) while the easier trials have some really nice, fast curvy sections with good flow. The people on and around this trail were really friendly.

alot of fun to be had here, great tight winding trails, a few technical sections, came across a fun jump that can be ridden by any, few good drops here and there, all and all worth riding

Great place to ride. Nice slow, twisty, challenging technical sections and lots of fast flowy singletrack riding sections. The best of both worlds! Rolling hills add to the fun and keep you working hard. Best route is to follow Jack's Trail (marked in orange and black arrows from the parking area and through the woods) around all the trails.

Ravenshoe is very close to New Market and Toronto. Far enough from the city to enjoy. 90% of the track is rolling single track flows well from one section to the next with a few very tight & twisty rooted singles there. Bring bug repellant if your visiting after a rain fall. Great thing about Ravenshoe is that you can ride the trails for a good two hours or so without too much strain; quick up and down hills with some spots of sand. The sections are named and there are a few must try...Stinky Skunk and Stumpy are a must...* Review edited 9/19/2008
