“Ride here all the time.pumice draining soil makes it rideable in most conditions.Got everything for most riders.Decent climbs and fast downhills.”

- Justin on Craters MTB Park

“Massive park - huge selection of trails. Rode after some consistent rain - few puddles but the tracks drain well & are in great condition. Easy to navigate using Trailforks or map. There are some epic trails with flowing downhill berms & jumps, wall rides, rainforest & pine forest. Can’t rate this place highly enough…”
