i have ridden here for years. i can hit this place from my house in 5 miles on the snowmobile trails. It has everything, sick climbs, twisty singletrack,awesome downhills etc. Good for the expert or beginner, and family. i have been all over the park, you can do a 20-mile ride and never hit the same trail, or see anyone else for that matter. Bring a buddy if not familiar with the trail system.

my brother built a house up near bear brook it has been the best trials i have been on so far, even tho im more of a freerider i have to bike for a few hours before i hit my favorite trail but its well worth it, i get to see the great sights and small rivers, open fields and doesnt cost me a dime to get in, (because of my brother living there) i highly suggest to bike there. its awesome

Nearly 10,000 acres, the largest developed Park in NH. A "Day Use" fee of $2.50 is collected at the toll booth (When they are open.)Mountain Biking is widely accepted and encouraged in the park. But, remember this is a conservation area. To preserve trail integrity (and our welcome ;-) and prevent erosion, try to avoid riding muddy trails whenever possible.The park boasts 40 miles of trails leading to seldom visited marshes, bogs, summits and ponds. I still have not explored all of them.For those interested in attaining some height there is Catamount Hill..... Catamount Trial begins off of One Mile Trail and the rocky path climbs 721 Feet in 1/2 Mile to the relatively open summit and ridge.Or, explore Hall Mt trail with a summit at 941 Feet.I scanned a trail map and put it on line at:http://www.geocities.com/shavings_net/BearBrookTrails.jpgDon't forget your insect repellant!Mountian Biking is a welcome activity
