The expansive mountain is home to tons of natural features as well as man-made elements distributed across the 80 miles of lift-serviced trails. The 3,100 feet of vertical drop is absolutely massive, meaning there are steep gradients to satisfy advanced riders as well as calmer zones that are perfect if you\u2019re just starting out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Northstar Bike Park<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"386\" src=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Rider-getting-air-next-to-the-gondola-in-Northstar-Bike-Park.jpg\" alt=\"Rider getting air next to the gondola in Northstar Bike Park\" class=\"wp-image-6636\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Rider-getting-air-next-to-the-gondola-in-Northstar-Bike-Park.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Rider-getting-air-next-to-the-gondola-in-Northstar-Bike-Park-300x122.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Rider-getting-air-next-to-the-gondola-in-Northstar-Bike-Park-768x312.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Rider getting air next to the gondola in Northstar Bike Park.

I grew up in the Bay Area and the Northstar ski resort has been one of the most popular winter spots for a long time and well-loved by mountain bikers in the summer months. The terrain is so good that Northstar has even hosted the Enduro World Series a while back, joining a selective group of resorts across the world of pro-level bike parks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Located high up in the Sierra Nevadas, Northstar features thrilling, heavy-hitting terrain like rock stairs, steep chutes, and technical sections that veteran riders will appreciate. There are also calmer zones that beginner riders use to develop their skills as well as plentiful academies and MTB lessons. There are tons of trails that are open to ebikes so you can use your upgraded machine to its full potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out this video review of the trails and terrain of the Northstar Bike Park here<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container\" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Northstar Bike Park Review\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0qZC4E4waX8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mid-Atlantic and Northeast<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Killington Mountain Resort Bike Park<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"557\" src=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Mountain-biker-on-dirt-trail-at-Killington-Mountain-Resort-Bike-Park.jpg\" alt=\"Mountain biker on dirt trail at Killington Mountain Resort Bike Park\" class=\"wp-image-6638\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Mountain-biker-on-dirt-trail-at-Killington-Mountain-Resort-Bike-Park.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Mountain-biker-on-dirt-trail-at-Killington-Mountain-Resort-Bike-Park-300x176.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Mountain-biker-on-dirt-trail-at-Killington-Mountain-Resort-Bike-Park-768x450.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Mountain biker on dirt trail at Killington Mountain Resort Bike Park.

Whereas the winter ski resorts on that side of the US typically pale in comparison to their Rocky Mountain and West Coast counterparts, the summertime Killington bike park hangs with the best of them. The trail builders and organizers at the resort started making big upgrades in 2017 and new routes are being constructed as we speak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I especially like the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.killington.com\/the-mountain\/trail-area-maps\/bike-park-trail-guide?season=summer?season=summer\" target=\"_blank\"> <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.killington.com\/the-mountain\/trail-area-maps\/bike-park-trail-guide?season=summer?season=summer\" target=\"_blank\">three skill-oriented zones<\/a> on the mountain that carves out sections with terrain designed for beginner, intermediate, and advanced riders. This improves the riding flow when there are lots of riders around and makes navigating the mountain predictable, avoiding stumbling into terrain you aren\u2019t prepared for. If you\u2019re in the area, Killington definitely deserves a visit and is even worth a longer trek for riders coming from out of town!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mountain Creek Bike Park<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"633\" src=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Rider-on-man-made-feature-in-Mountain-Creek-Bike-Park.jpg\" alt=\"Rider on man made feature in Mountain Creek Bike Park\" class=\"wp-image-6637\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Rider-on-man-made-feature-in-Mountain-Creek-Bike-Park.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Rider-on-man-made-feature-in-Mountain-Creek-Bike-Park-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.333fab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Rider-on-man-made-feature-in-Mountain-Creek-Bike-Park-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Rider on man made feature in Mountain Creek Bike Park.
