Trail Description:
Banner Forest is a great network of trails with a little something for everyone. If you're looking for long climbs, look elsewhere but these trails offer plenty of fun for all. All the trails are in great condition. Too many to list.
How to get there:
From hwy 16, exit at sedgewick rd. and head West 6-8 miles. When you hit Banner rd. take a left turn and go 1-2 miles until you see the Banner forest sign. Park there.

This is my favorite trail so far. There
are a couple jumps, a couple ladder
bridges, and TRULY something for
everyone. My wife loves it as well, and
she's on the lower ended of the skill
spectrum. Look out for horse poop.

Went out to banner for the first time today. If you like single track this place is heaven. Nothing too challenging as far as climbs go but just enough to feel like exercise. I will be back soon, I love that place.

I give Banner a 5, not because I'm some sort of MTB maniac (I'm not), but because I've ridden through it many times and never gotten bored with it. It's also local (+) and has a nice variation of intensities, from meandering trails to muddy, difficult, twisty single track. Banner is a great place to ride.

I would like to correct the current information that
Banner is a huge single track park. It is in fact a
multi use park, that is supposed to be a natural area
preserve. 139 acres of it is in nature preserve
protection with no biking on its trails. Banner is
shared with horses, hikers and naturalists. Please
be aware of other users on the trails, and respect
that this is not a bike only park. And please stop
building rogue wild cat trails and jumps in the park.
They are not only not allowed, but just may get the
bikers removed from park usage.

Its alright. pretty much all single track. ive ridden pretty much every trail. a few downhills, some jumps and drops around, a log ride or two. most are gone though. nice trail gap jump by the main parking lot.

I just wanted to say that I saw some bad directions to Banner Forest... it is actually East on Sedgewick rd from HWY16... you go about 5 miles and hang a right, then go another 1.2 mi and you are at the large trailhead.

Gotta love Banner. I ride Banner on a regular basis and never get bored. Unlike loops and lots of other trails, Banner has an endless supply of single track trails speckled with technical excursions (e.i. jumps, log rides, teeter-totter...). I've gone on 4 hour rides without repeating a trail.
Bottom Line: Banner Rocks! :)
