Our NC Blue
Ridge Cabins are located right in the heart of
the Blue Ridge Mountains, which provides
tourists and visitors to the High Country with a
great place to mountain bike. The North Carolina
mountain biking trails you’ll find here offer
some of the best ways to get out and see parts
of the mountain that are not accessible by a car. We have compiled
some
information about the great trails and a bit
about the local bike shops so you can enjoy
this popular pastime in the mountains.
 Throughout the area you’ll find excellent spots,
many of which are renowned for mountain biking.
In Valle Crucis, there are several wonderful
places to start your mountain biking excursion.
You can enjoy a ride along the Blue Ridge
Parkway and see gorgeous sites of the mountains,
or ride through Valle Crucis Park along the
river. Each year, Blood, Sweat and Gears
is an event that starts and ends in Valle Crucis
and takes riders through a 21 mile portion of
the Blue Ridge Parkway that is particularly
grueling. Experienced riders will enjoy the
camaraderie and competition of the event, be
sure to check it out next year.
Banner Elk is especially friendly to mountain
bikers and in the summer months. Sugar Mountain
offers a lift service to the top of Sugar
Mountain for bikers to enjoy the
mountain biking trails atop Sugar. Sugar
Mountain is also home to an annual bike event,
and the Showdown at Sugar is a NORBA National
Championship Event that is a showcase for
professional riders.
 In Blowing Rock, the Benson Hollow Trail has
long been considered one of the top spots for
mountain biking in North Carolina. Nearby, the
18 mile ride and Buckeye Trails are also
great places to check out in Blowing Rock.
The trails around the Moses Cone home and
carriage trails provide yet another way to
enjoy North Carolina mountain biking.
Venture just outside of Boone and mountain bike,
or rather just bike, as the road is mostly flat
and scenic, along the New River on the Railroad
Grade Road biking area. The road runs alongside
the New River and is home to beautiful locations
and scenery. Be sure to share the road with
drivers, as it is particularly narrow in certain
parts, but this rural road is a
favorite among mountain biking locals.
For true bike enthusiasts, the area’s Virginia
Creeper Trail provides an abundance of biking
areas. Just a short drive away in Damascus,
Virginia there are a number of bike shops,
guides and trail maps of the Virginia Creeper
trails. Stay in our lovely
