SaveThe Walden Mountain Bike Club maintains single track trails located in the Walden Trails Park off Municipal Road 55 in Naughton, which is in the west end of the City of Greater Sudbury. The bike trails cover an area of 350 acres of City Park, Crown and private land. The terrain is rolling to moderately hilly, with numerous rock outcrops, typical of the Precambrian Shield found across Northern Ontario. The trails are cut to take advantage these features. Trails in the park are maintained in a partnership with Walden Cross Country.
WCC operates cross country skiing, fat biking and snowshoeing trails during the winter months.
The 16 km of single track trails are open in late May once they dry out. The close as early as Oct 15th, but can stay open longer with dry weather. Trail Conditions post here. Some of the lower trails hold the moisture, so wait one day after a heavy rain before heading out to ride.. The rock, roots and bridge sections can be slippery during a rain, so this is another time to avoid using the trails.
