SaveRaccoon Mountain features nearly 30 miles of intermediate to advanced single track; the crown jewel of Chattanooga mountain biking, a mere 15 minutes from downtown. Raccoon is “real” mountain biking, a network narrow singletrack that snakes through the forest high above Chattanooga. Expect roots, rocks, steep pitches, flow, more rocks, close encounters with trailside trees and as much fun as you can handle.
