Mountain Biking Program Overview
Blackhawk members have access to a network of mountain bike trails for riders of all abilities. Over the past few years, we have transformed our trails from the “old school” rocky, rutted, fall-line style to new “flow trails” that are wide, fun, fast, and sustainable! We’re open both summer and winter, with occasional closings due to rain or icy conditions. Any club member can use the trails. Summer Mountain Bike memberships ($25/single, $50/family) are available for those who wish to use the club only during the mountain bike season (April 1-October 31), and Winter Fat Bike memberships ($25/single, $50/family) are available for those who wish to use the club during the winter "Fat Bike" season (November 1-March 31).
