Cross Country Rider Summary:
This is NOT the place for anyone who is past the beginner level and is looking for an intense ride. However, it is a great place for beginners to learn technique and there are some beautiful places to stop and take in the beauty of nature. I have read the other reviews and am scratching my head. The trails that you are not supposed to go on are CLEARLY marked, the rangers are very nice, and once you are done riding you can pop into town and get a beer at the Black Cow! I used to live 1 mile from the park and would use it to keep in shape. It's easily accessible and you can get a decent cardio workout. There are plenty of sidetrails to find if you are patient and take the time. Recommended Route:
Look at the map available at the parking area. Look for side trails to pop off onto. DO NOT go on trails marked for hikers only. People on these trails are not expecting bikers to come flying around the corner. Also-look out for horses. They spook. Other recommended trails in the same area:
Gordon College-good technical stuff
Bradley Palmer-easy place or beginners

, from Dracut, MA, USA Summary:
There's ok cross country trails for the family. But the whole park is very small with little elevation change. Plus 1/2 of it is off limits to bikers, but they don't put any signs up to tell you what is and what isn't allowed. Would not recommend this unless you live close to it.

Pretty weak trails. Even my wife who is not a serious mountain biker was bored with these trails. Not recommended if you like fun. Other recommended trails in the same area:
Dogtown, Lynn Woods, etc...

Reviewed by: Captain Chouie
, from Plaistow Summary:
Many miles of trail, need to really explore to map out a good path, some decent climbs and downhills. Definitely need to be aware of others (walkers, horses etc...), However, ridden many times and have run into very little problems. Overall, intermediate but some harder spots requiring bike control if you chose those paths! Search and you will find! Recommended Route:
Explore, many different options to choose from. Other recommended trails in the same area:
Fort Rock, Georgetown State Forest, Amesbury, Beaver Dam Trails in S. Hampton, Pete's Pipeline Path in Haverhill
