View of hillside Post Canyon singletrack

Hood River Area Trail Stewards HRATS have put a lot of effort into this trail system, and it shows in how well these trails have held up over the years. Consider helping to maintain and build the trail system...a great use of a day.

The area offers an ever-increasing variety of stunts, for various skill levels, with constant maintenance and innovation to keep it interesting.

Lots of freeride and trials ramps and teeters, but several hours of nice, twisty singletrack mixed in as well.

Several really nice hillside trails, some of which don't get much use, and all of the terrain is well suited for building intermediate-rider skills.

This non-destination, local trail system is worth checking out after some more substantial ride or when it's too wet or cold elsewhere.

Note: As with most bike parks, the existence of trails and their names changes as needed by the condition of the terrain. Please only use the map and names as a general guide.

Hospital Hill is nearby, an active tree farm for Stevenson Land Company, so sometimes closed for logging.

The Green Point Reservoir is southwest of the Post Canyon - Seven Streams area, with extensive Orv trails near the Kingsley CG.

Directions: From Hood River, go west on Oak St until it merges with W. Cascade and continues to Country Club Rd. Take a left at Country Club Rd for about a mile and a half. Look for Post Canyon Rd and take a right. Drive until the road becomes gravel and park. View Larger Map. No Map?.

Post Canyon Area Topo Map

  • TH: Ride from the Post Canyon TH or the Seven Streams TH. With Mitchell Ridge along the upper terrain, CW loops work best.
  • As an example of the area terrain, the profile map shows a 6.5mi Seven Streams Tr100 - Mitchell Ridge Tr110 lollipop loop, starting from the Post Canyon staging area.
  • Depending on skill level and use of the many stunts, most riders would either repeat some version of the CW loop or use a shuttle to the Post Flats TH if freeriding.

Many campsites along Upper Eagle Creek Tr440, with a few campgrounds located inland, accessible from SR35 through Dee.

Plenty of loop options, with moderate ridgeline terrain once out of the gorge. Note the elevation changes if traversing across ridgelines, as some of the ridges are very steep.
