Popular Millcreek Mountain Biking Trails
• 95 ★ 4.9 • 2 miles • 167 ft • 5,864 •
Amazing scenery, great views of both sides, but trail is washed out and wide in places.
• 100 ★ 3.0 • 699 ft • 61 ft • 3,604 •
Fall 2021 re-route which bypasses a steep janky section of old dirt road on the PC side of the ridge with some single track on the BCC side
• 85 ★ 4.7 • 3 miles • 31 ft • 3,376 •
Section between Big Water and Old Red Pine Road is fabulous singletrack with a gradual grade. The upper part gets steeper and much of the trail is old 4WD road. Gets a lot of traffic, especially downhill coming off the ridge.
• 90 ★ 4.3 • 2,159 ft • 0 ft • 3,299 •
The upper most segment of the new trail connecting the bottom part of Lower Big Water to further down Mill Creek Canyon.
• 85 ★ 3.5 • 7 miles • 495 ft • 3,056 •
Flowy and fast, not the greatest trail, but close to town, and the best way to extend a ride coming from Mill Creek Canyon TH up top
• 90 ★ 4.3 • 1 mile • 36 ft • 2,969 •
This trail winds along the canyon above the road. Trail has straight sections with roots and rolls you can pop off of, but every 2-300m there is a tight turn to navigate a root or gulley, falling in these locations would be bad (exposure).
• 95 ★ 4.1 • 2 miles • 98 ft • 2,788 •
This trail connects the Upper Millcreek trails to Lower Pipeline without riding on the road. Fantastic route on the up or the down! Now you can exit Big Water and stay on singletrack all the way to Elbow Fork! The trail winds high above...
• 80 ★ 4.0 • 2,228 ft • 5 ft • 2,251 •
Top part is very steep and wide. Just goes straight down.
