Including the Mount
Rogers National Recreation Area (NRA)
Find all the rides that the locals
know about right here! Damascus Virginia has much to offer in the way of Mountain Biking
opportunities. There are over 200 miles of legal, shared-use bike trails in the Mt. Rogers
National Recreation Area, 100 miles of them being in the immediate Damascus area. We have
trails for every ability from family type beginner rides to hard-core hammerhead
rides!
Being right on the edge of the Mt.
Rogers National Recreation Area, we have an enormous wealth of trails that are not well
known outside the area. Well, now we've decided to stop being so selfish and share them
with the rest of the world. These pages focus on the trails from Damascus to Skulls Gap,
also known as the "Beartree Area" and the trails east of Skulls
Gap in the "Hurricane Area".
So...if you like Tsali
NC, The Pisgah NF in NC or Pocahontas County WV, then you will love Damascus
VA. Easy to get to, no big crowds of people,
there are plenty of well marked and well maintained shared-use trails, and we won't
make you squeal like a pig!
All
we ask is that you use our trails responsibly, yield when you encounter other trail users
and have fun!

Remember: Mountain Biking
can be dangerous and there are risks involved.
I take no responsibility for injuries, getting lost or any other calamity that you can
think of.
