Mountain Biking

Lee County offers mountain biking for every kind of rider, from flowing single-track at Chewacla State Park to rugged backcountry routes through Tuskegee National Forest. With more than 60 miles of trail access, technical features, wooded terrain, and the support of Central Alabama Mountain Pedalers, the area gives riders plenty of room to explore, challenge themselves, and experience the outdoors in Auburn-Opelika.

Chewacla State Park Trails

Chewacla State Park offers more than 30 miles of single-track mountain biking trails, with routes for both beginner and advanced riders. From flowing wooded paths to technical features like the Great Wall of Chewacla and the double-black diamond Forbidden Zone, this trail system gives riders plenty of ways to explore, push their limits, and enjoy one of Lee County’s premier outdoor experiences.

Tuskegee National Forest Trails

Tuskegee National Forest offers nearly 30 miles of backcountry mountain biking trails, with rugged routes best suited for moderate to experienced riders. From rocky and root-filled sections to sandy stretches and narrow forest paths, this old-school trail system gives riders a more technical ride, plenty of room to explore, and a quieter way to experience Lee County’s outdoor landscape.
