Hot Springs’ Northwoods Trail System has been voted the top mountain bike trail system in Arkansas in a poll by ArkansasOutside.com, an organization that reports on all recreational outdoor activities in the state.

“We are so honored to have been voted the No.1 Mountain Bike Trail in Arkansas by the AO readers,” Visit Hot Springs Trails Coordinator Traci Berry said. “We are not blind to all of the amazing trail systems that have been and are being developed in our state. To be recognized at the top of that long list is something to be very proud of.”

“We are very appreciative to IMBA Trail Solutions and now Rogue Trails for leaving us with a sustainable, world-class trail system. We know that in order to ensure they remain at that level, they must be maintained. I believe having a dedicated trails staff is often what sets Northwoods apart. With that, we must recognize our trail staff; Jake, Jacob, and AJ,  for all of the hard work they do daily to keep the trails in tip-top shape, which leads to consistent year-round trail use that is vital to the sustainable health of a trail.”

In naming Northwoods No. 1 in the state, Arkansas Outside said, “Combining the old-school trails at Cedar Glades with the newer Northwoods Trails makes this system a go-to for everyone. Whether you want great jump lines, classic cross country, or techy turny sections, this place has it. On top of that it has its own management team that keeps it in tip-top shape.”
