Bike to new levels in the mountains of beautiful Stokes County, North Carolina. Hanging Rock State Park, currently provides 8.4 miles of mountain biking trails, making it the perfect location to challenge yourself on four intermediate trails of varying difficulty. Terrain and natural mountain features of trails at Hanging Rock are unlike what you experience on paved bike paths in other areas of the Piedmont.

Recently acquired property in the Moores Springs area has allowed for expansion of current trails, work on the new area should conclude this fall.The project will provide approximately 7.6 additional miles of NEW biking trails on a portion of park property north of Moores Springs Road. Access to the existing trails will be through a section of the NEW Beginner and Intermediate Connector Trails, crossing a shallow section of Cascade Creek. This new access will provide appropriate progression of trail difficulty for riders. The Beginner Trail, about four miles in length, will provide an experience for riders currently not available on the existing system. The NEW 1.5 mile Intermediate Connector has numerous bermed turns in close proximity to each other, on steep slopes of a three feet wide trail.

The most exciting will be the Intermediate Two-Way Trail, the only trail to provide access to the proposed future Advanced Loop. This trail will be wide allowing for bike travel in both directions, the true challenge will be steeper sustained grades on steep sideslopes and bermed turns to increase difficulty for riders.
