      Belmont is a small, mostly residential city in San Mateo county. Its notability for mountain biking lies in a little gem of a park called Waterdog Lake & Open Space (often also referring to the adjoining Hidden Canyon Park). Many of the trails in this park have been built and maintained by mountain bikers in coordination with the City of Belmont, lending to a surprisingly dense and interesting trail network for such a small area.
