Description:
The Mid-Peninsula Regional Open Space District manages a vast network of land holdings in the Santa Cruz Mountains much of which is open to mountain biking. Bikers owe them (as well as the local trail access group - R.O.M.P.) their gratitude not only for protecting these beautiful areas, but also for treating us as legitimate users. The result is miles of open fire roads and single-track just a short drive from Silicon Valley.

This map covers the area stretching from Saratoga Gap near Rte 9 to Russian Ridge near Page Mill Road. The area encompasses open grasslands and meadows as well as wooded hillsides and canyons. While there are miles of single-track, none of the trails are technically difficult, making the area ideal for beginners and intermediate riders.
