So if you know anything about Seattle, you know that it is beyond well-known for its outdoor activities. Mountain biking is just one those activities that is a natural fit for the northwest.

Trails Everywhere
There are a ton of reasons why Seattle is such a great place to mountain bike, but one of the main reasons is the landscape itself. I mean, you’ve got the the Olympic National Forest, the Cascades, and everything in between. And all these are home to trails for all types of skill levels.

There are trails suitable for kids, as well as those that are more complicated for more technical riders. What’s great, too, is that there are a ton of clubs and associations around the area that are really big into getting people out and about mountain biking on some of these great trails. One of these clubs is the Backcountry Bicycle Trails Club. These guys are not only into mountain biking, but, as the name suggests, love anything to do with the outdoors. Plus, they’re really helpful to anyone interested in getting some more information on Seattle mountain biking.

Popular Trail
One of the most popular trails for mountain biking (as well as for roller bladers, road cyclists, and anyone interested in getting out and enjoying Seattle) is the Burke-Gilman Trail. The Burke-Gilman trail actually links different parts of Seattle together and is a great way for people to get around. The trail is a fairly long one and even passes by Lake Washington. There are some great views of the Seattle area from the trail, so you’ll want to make sure that you at least spend some time checking it out.

Mountain Biking as a Visitor
If you’re visiting the area for a few short days, you might not have your mountain bike with you, but don’t worry. Since Seattle is such a haven of outdoor enthusiasts, there are plenty of shops in and around Seattle that are more than happy to rent you a mountain bike while your there. What’s even better is that these places can also point you in the right direction and give you a heads up on some trails suitable to your skill level.
