Thunder Mountain Bike Park is one of the best parks on the East Coast and is always being updated with new trails and additions. We also have lessons if you want our trained guides and instructors to assist you no matter the age and ability.
Thunder Mountain Bike Park is a downhill mountain bike park. Riders take the lift up and ride down purpose-built trails that range from introductory green trails to Pro-Line jump trails. This style of riding is best suited for very specific bicycles and gear. If you don’t own DH MTB gear, we offer a full selection of rental bikes and gear in our rental shop + retail shop in the main lodge.
Tickets & Rentals: Purchase in advance! We will continue a daily limit on day tickets and bike rentals, so make you buy before you come and don’t miss out. To purchase tickets, click here, and to rent a bike, click here.
