Maston Trails
A Hidden Gem
Tucked away and well-loved by locals, the Maston Trails offer smooth singletrack, rolling berms, and just enough elevation to keep things interesting. This go-to spot stays on the drier, firmer side when other trails turn to mud, making it a reliable ride year-round.
Cascade View Trail System
Scenic & Smooth
Located near Cline Falls, the Cascade View Trail System dishes out fast descents, dreamy flow, and jaw-dropping vistas. Open landscapes blend seamlessly into wooded sections, offering the best of both worlds. It’s smooth, scenic, momentum-driven riding at its finest, making it a favorite for intermediate riders.
Cline Butte
Rugged & Rewarding
Cline Butte doesn’t mess around. It’s built for riders who love rocky climbs and steep, technical descents. The exposed terrain adds an extra dose of challenge and the reward of epic views and adrenaline-fueled downhill runs. If you’re looking to test your skills—and your nerve—Cline Butte is the proving ground.
The Radlands
A Local Favorite
When winter rain turns other trails to mush, The Radlands hold strong. This desert ride weaves through juniper-dotted landscapes with minimal elevation and maximum fun. Whether you’re squeezing in a quick session or settling into a scenic groove, The Radlands is always a solid bet.
Other Must-Ride Trails
For those willing to venture a little farther, these trails are well worth the trip:
Gray Butte Trail (Smith Rock)
Steep climbs, thrilling descents, and sweeping views that’ll make you stop mid-ride to take it all in.
