Black Hills National Forest Biking Overview

Mountain bikers enjoy their sport on several thousand miles of old logging trails and low standard roads, plus some developed trails shared with other users. Most routes are easy, but there are challenging sections for the serious biker. The variety of opportunities for bikers led GORP to dub the area around Custer, South Dakota, one of its biking Meccas beyond Moab. You'll find some great trails in other areas, too. The Bearlodge Trails are the star attraction for bikers. This 50.3-mile system in rugged canyon country is the arena for the annual Fattire Biking Challenge. Read More
