“Best” is a big word. It’s only four letters long, but it’s hard to apply such an absolute term to something as subjective as riding a great trail. So we asked our readers for help in finding the “best” trails in the USA and Canada. Nominations came in from the four corners of the continent, and the 11 trails we selected—along with two runners-up per category—offer some of the best mountain biking on the planet.
We asked, you spoke. From the best descents in Whistler to the epic singletrack of Moab, Fruita and Pisgah, here are the best trails on the continent, nominated by the readers of Bike magazine.
Brown County Trails
Nashville, IN
This expanding trail system is quickly becoming a favorite destination for Midwest riders. The network started with 9 miles of volunteer-built trails, then an additional 10 miles were added with the aid of a $150,000 federal Recreational Trails Program grant. Now, its 19 miles of singletrack is among the most varied terrain east of the Mississippi. From berms to steep switchbacks to tight trees to rock gardens, these trails have it all. And even more are on the way, with an ambitious expansion plan already in the works.
