Mountain Biking Taconic-hereford

****   Add a review
#26 of 297 mountain bike trails in New York
#1,554 in the world

The terrain consists mostly of rolling hills with moderately steep slopes interspersed throughout. Fire roads & snowmobile trails circle and loop through dense hardwood forest over hilly terrain. Branching off these fire roads are more challenging single-track spur trails that provide a variety of trail experiences from fast and smooth to technical, with roots, grass and loose rocks. No motor vehicles are allowed.

Rider questions

Q: Can someone give a description of the loops to take? Take this trail to this trail to this trail...
A: dude. one hardly needs a guide to take full advantage of this great place. Just go there and ride! you don't need more than a compass! ha. every trail is awesome. Pre internet I never got too lost in the woods.

Q: Are there any tips to prepare for potential bear encounter?
A: 9mm (at least) in fanny pack. As far as how to physically present oneself. thats all over the internet.
