Mountain Biking Details
There are several dirt and gravel roads that make for great mountain biking in the park. Both of the main roads leading to the park, McCarthy Road and Nabesna Road are unpaved and offer great scenery coming into the park. Off of McCarthy Road two great spurs to ride on are Kotsina Road and Nugget Creek Trail. Additionally from the town of McCarthy visitors can also ride dirt roads to the historic town of Kennecott and to the Nizina River. All of these options are non-technical routes, but would make for great riding if you have a bike with you!
