Biking
There are many places to go biking on the Gifford Pinchot National Forest.
E-Biking
E-bikes have motors and are only allowed on motorized trails and roads.
The free Motor Vehicle Use Map shows the roads, trails, and areas where you can legally drive your wheeled motor vehicles. These roads, trails and areas are designated by type of motor vehicle allowed and the allowable season of use.
All motor vehicle operators are required to know and follow the regulations displayed on the Motor Vehicle Use Map when driving a motor vehicle on the forest.
The Motor Vehicle Use Map is free and available online and at Ranger District Offices.
Mountain Biking
More than one thousand miles of trails are woven throughout the Gifford Pinchot National Forest, and many are open to mountain bikers.
How you rate trail difficulty will depend on your riding experience, the kind of bike you use, your goals, along with the ever-changing factors of weather and trail conditions. Trail guide pamphlets are available at the District Ranger Stations and the Forest Headquarters. Information includes specific trail information and directions for locating trails.
Provide feedback about your trail experience & conditions. Trail conditions often change. Contacting your local Ranger Station to let a Forest Service representative know about a change in trail conditions, such as a fallen tree or washout, is a tremendous help.
E-bikes (or electric assisted bikes) are motorized bikes! Please remember that e-bikes are restricted to motorized trails.
Road Cycling
Road biking: Most roads through the forest are not paved or may have rough surfaces, logging trucks, and/or blind curves. Please use extreme caution while riding on roads or visit your nearest Gifford Pinchot office for more information about road biking.
