Mount Hood National Forest Mountain Bike Trails

The Barlow and Hood River Ranger Districts contain a cluster of the best rides in the Northern Oregon Cascades.

Extensive wilderness area limits biking in the rest of the Mt Hood National Forest.

2020 Riverside, Lionshead Fires: Most of the Clackamas RD was damaged by the fires. See the Mount Hood NF Site for closures.

As always, it is best to call the local Ranger District for trail conditions and other restrictions prior to riding, as the NF website may not contain trip-specific details.
