Bond Brook Preserve Mountain Biking Trails

Located in the heart of Augusta and within riding distance of the University of Maine at Augusta, the Bond Brook Recreation Area offers a well established network of singletrack and doubletrack/nordic trails. Bond Brook Recreation Area is built on a very hilly parcel of land. Beginner riders will be challenged by some of the climbs and features, but all riders can find plenty of trails to enjoy. Most challenging features have ride around options, or you can skip entire sections by using the double track.

The mountain bike singletracks are some of the best MTB trails anywhere. The wider cross country ski trails offer a break from the singletrack that is generally more challenging. They are also better for newer riders, though some are hilly. The singletrack network has many various loop options and they criss cross the nordic trails regularly to allow riders endless opportunities to create loops. You can ride this network 50 times and never ride the same loop twice. It can be challenging to learn the trails, but after a couple rides it starts to make sense.

Central Maine NEMBA has worked hard with Augusta Trails to make these trails both fun and challenging. At only 268 acres you'll be surprised to discover over 17 miles of singletrack trails here.
