    Mountain Biking at Henry Horton

    The South Horton Trail System at Henry Horton State Park offers ten miles of well-maintained, multi-use trails perfect for hiking, trail running, and mountain biking.

    Spanning approximately seven miles, the inner and outer loops of this scenic trail provide a fun and approachable outdoor experience for all skill levels. The newly added Phase 3, blazed in white, was designed for more experienced riders and includes several technical areas.

    To help you ride with confidence, bike pumps and basic bike tools are available at both the Visitor Center and the Camp Store.

    Henry Horton Trails 

    Located at the park’s Multi-Sport Area, South Horton Trail System is the only designated mountain biking trail within the park, aside from the easy-going Picnic Loop and the Greenway trail.

    Winding through beautiful, wooded areas and gentle natural terrain, the trail is designed to be beginner-friendly while still offering enjoyable challenges for more experienced riders. 

    Whether you're new to mountain biking, out for a relaxing hike, or looking to explore the park’s natural beauty, the South Horton Trail System is a great way to experience the outdoors at Henry Horton State Park.
