Mtn Biking - Moscow Mountain - North Contour

All trails on Moscow Mountain are on private land and are closed to motorized use. Please respect the land and wishes of the landowners.

This trail is the most popular of all mountain biking trails on Moscow Mountain. It is a swoopy and smooth single track built on an old section of logging skid road. It is short, but worth a frequent visit as part of your trail ride.

The trail is ridable by virtually all skill levels, and is enjoyed by beginners - advanced riders. The trail is usually ridden one direction (from west to east). To find the trail, get to 4-corners (intersection of Moscow Mountain Rd and Foothill Rd) and head west on Foothill. The trailhead is about 1.25 miles from 4-corners. About 0.5 miles from 4-corners you will see a small road witha blue gate off to the right. This is where you will return to after the trail is over. As you keep riding on Foothill Rd you may be able to see the trail iIf you look down off the north side. As you get closer to the trailhead, the trees on the right get thinner. Look for a soft drop to the right off of the road and enjoy a mile of beautiful singletrack. When you get to the end, turn right at the road (Meadow Trail). In about 1/4 mile you will reach the blue gate you passed on Foothill Rd.

Several other trails exist around this location. Advanced riders will enjoy continuing on Cave Trail back to 4-corners. More novice riders will enjoy a trip out to Paradise Point and the Radio Towers prior to heading down North Contour.
