Flatwoods Wilderness Park is mostly know for it’s 7-mile multi-use paved loop. This features a scenic ride with rest stops that have water coolers to relax at.
However, to the south of Morris B. road, there are quite a few lesser-known MTB trails to ride on. The Flatwoods off-road trails are an excellent ride for beginners, XC riders, or those who just want to build up more stamina. Beginners will have a great time here and will be able to get the grasp on the fundamentals of mountain biking without having to worry about any features that will be outside of their comfort zone.
Always keep others in mind and act accordingly. Several habitats, peaceful lakes, river access, wildlife, and a full day of fun await you as you bike through Trout Creek, Wilderness Park, and Flatwoods Park. This area is ecologically fragile, so please tread carefully.
These trail are used by other users, including hikers and trail runners. Dogs are allowed on the trails, but they must be kept on a leash at all times per county law in Hillsborough.
