Minnesing Mountain Bike Trail
The Minnesing Mountain Bike Trail is located 23 km from the West Gate and 33 km from the East Gate, just off of Hwy 60. The trail consists of four loops, with distances of 4.7, 10.1, 17.1 and 23.4 kilometres. All four loops are hilly and unsuitable for small children and unfit adults and are rated at a moderate level of technical difficulty. The western or return side of each loop follows the old Minnesing Road where the trail is smoother and the grades are less steep. Expect extensive muddy sections until the drier weather of August and September. Cabins are located at the start of the trail and on the return run of the second loop. The trail passes through hardwood forest with views of three lakes along the way.

Algonquin Park has partnered with the Ontario Cycling Association (OCA) is the operation of the Minnesing Trail. You can become a volunteer Algonquin Park Mountain Bike Ranger by contacting the OCA at (416) 426-7242.
