MOUNTAIN BIKING

RED LODGE TRAILS

In addition to our trails in town, Coal Miners Park has some fun switchbacks and rollers on the hill that connect to the trail along Rock Creek behind the Wildlife Sanctuary.

Access from Beartooth Lane, or from 5th Street at the end of the high school track/football field, or take 2nd Street to the Yellowstone Wildlife Sanctuary parking lot.

SURROUNDING TRAILS

Trails suitable for mountain biking include Silver Run, Palisades, Willow Creek, Ingles Creek, and Parkside. Maps for these trails can be found on our Summer Trails page. Please note e-bikes are considered motorized vehicles and only allowed on motorized routes. Be sure to know before your go, check updated USFS Rules here.

BRTA has partnered with Red Lodge Mountain and new trails are being added. The best way to find these trails in online at Trailforks or Strava.

BIKING INFRUSTRUCTURE

COMMUNITY PROGRAMS

The BRTA has installed almost 50 bike racks in the downtown area to improve the pedestrian environment and encourage non-motorized travel for a healthy central business district.

Siting and design of the racks are done mutually between the BRTA and the organization, insuring that adequate clearances, including ADA, are maintained. Construction and installation of the racks is done by Back Alley Metals. The bicycle racks have been funded from both the BRTA budget and from a Community Transportation Enhancement Program grant from the Montana Department of Transportation through the Carbon County Commission.

BRTA has given over 140 refurbished bikes to the Red Lodge Community. While BRTA no longer is refurbishing bikes, we are excited about our new project to install a bike station alongside the electric car charging station in Red Lodge.
