      The trail network in Richmond Hills is a great place to ride if you like fun, flowing grade 3+ trails. Easily accessed from Easby Park, off Marlborough Cresent, there is a grade 3 climbing track (Escalator) that takes you up through the Big Skid site and right up to the top ridge. From the top ridge, a new and rebuilt (2023) series of grade 3 trails will run you right back down to Easby Park. Hang Ten is a crowd favourite for descending, with many other trail options sure to come on line as the area is further developed post pine harvesting and native planting. Linkage to neighbouring Silvan MTB Park is also an easy option via the forestry road network.
