Mitchell Memorial Forest Mountain Bike Trail

Welcome to Mitchell Memorial Forest Mountain Bike Trail, the premier destination for mountain biking enthusiasts in Hamilton County. Located at 5401 Zion Road, Cleves, Ohio 45002, our park offers the first purpose-built mountain biking trail in the area, designed to meet the high standards set by the International Mountain Biking Association.

Our trail system features two distinct routes catering to different skill levels:

- Trail A: Ideal for intermediate riders, this 3.9-mile trail offers moderate to steep terrain with some technical features to challenge your skills.

- Trail B: Designed for advanced riders, this 4.2-mile trail includes moderate to steep terrain, several technical features, and sections that are more challenging.

Both trails are open to mountain bikers, hikers, and runners. We kindly ask all visitors to be courteous to other trail users and strongly recommend wearing helmets for safety.

For your convenience, an emergency phone is located near the restrooms and Stone Shelter. In case of emergencies, please dial 911. For non-emergency incidents, contact the Hamilton County Communication Center at 513-825-2280. To report trail problems or concerns, call 513-521-7275.

The Cincinnati Off-Road Alliance (CORA) is dedicated to maintaining the trail, and we welcome volunteers to join our trail maintenance days. These typically occur on Saturdays from November through May and occasionally on weekday evenings from May to July. Keep an eye on our Facebook page for scheduled opportunities and further details. Volunteers are encouraged to wear old clothes, sturdy shoes, and bring work gloves along with tools like rakes, loppers, mattocks, or hand saws.

Please note that a valid Motor Vehicle Permit is required to enter the park. We look forward to seeing you on the trails and hope you have an exhilarating experience at Mitchell Memorial Forest Mountain Bike Trail!
