Mountain Bike Trails in Austin

Compare local trails by distance, difficulty, surface, elevation, and nearby riding options before opening the route in RidePal.

Mulligan

Blue SquareUnpaved

A compact technical section between the golf course and railroad, with tight turns and a drop. Its short distance hides more handling work than the nearby concrete path; the return has steeper and more gradual options.

0.4 mi

Veloway

Green CirclePaved

A paved circuit for cycling and inline skating rather than dirt-trail riding. Travel clockwise, keep right unless passing, and pass on the left. Helmets are required; walkers and dogs are not permitted on the track.

3.1 mi

Powerline Flow Trail

Blue SquareGround

A short dirt section with shaped berms near the concrete trail. It offers a cornering-focused addition to a Walnut Creek ride; expect two-way traffic rather than a dedicated downhill run.

0.2 mi

Windy Loop Trail

Blue SquareGround

A twisting dirt loop with built berms and a log roller. Expect trail features to negotiate rather than a smooth park path; it can be ridden in both directions.

0.9 mi

BMX Loop

Blue SquareGround

BMX Loop combines dirt riding with built jump and berm features around the separate pump-track area. The nearby jump park offers bigger jump lines as a separate riding choice.

0.8 mi

0.2 mi

The Rim Loop

Blue SquareUnpaved

0.6 mi

Quarter Notch

Blue SquareDirt

Rocky, winding singletrack where line choice and repeated technical moves matter more than outright speed. Quarter Notch is a substantial step up from the regional shared-use path; use that path to connect to gentler options.

2.8 mi

Double Down

Black DiamondRock

A demanding, winding rock trail with loose surfaces, steep moves and drops. Double Down suits riders seeking technical terrain; expect more commitment than the regional shared-use trail used to link the network.

1.7 mi

Mark's Art

Black DiamondGround

Mark’s Art includes a berm and a step-down roller. This short feature-focused section asks for more than simply following a flat dirt path; inspect unfamiliar features before committing.

0.2 mi

Picnic X

Blue SquareUnpaved

A short unpaved option in the Picnic network. Local riders describe Picnic X as less rocky than Quarter Notch, making it a useful place to start before deciding whether to tackle the tougher rock trails.

0.3 mi

Tangle of Trails Loop

Blue SquareGround

A winding hillside section between the power-line area and the main creek crossing. Expect repeated changes in direction, rises and descents rather than a long, continuous downhill.

0.8 mi

Outer Log Loop

Blue SquareGroundTrail

Wooded singletrack with closely spaced turns, roots and rocks, but relatively little climbing. This outer section belongs to the larger Log Loops network; watch for opposing riders around blind bends.

0.7 mi

Endo Valley Trail

Black DiamondGround

A short, steep and rocky descent toward the paved path. Endo Valley is a more technical option than much of Walnut Creek; its short length does not make it an easy connector.
