FAT BIKING
ABOUT
Welcome to BikeTrails@Hockley!
Mountain Bike enthusiasts can enjoy 10.5 kilometers of trails that wind around through Hockley Valley Resort. Our single track cross country mountain bike trails are built for seasoned riders looking for a physical and technical challenge in the beautiful hills of the Headwaters.
The main Resort Trail which is made up of the West Trail (2.2 km), the East Trail (5 km) , the Winery Loop (1.9km) and the Lookout Trail (1.4 km).
The trail direction alternates letting riders experience the trails' unique design features from one day to the next, keeping the riding experience fresh and exciting. Trail features include, scenic views of the Hockley Valley, four ‘Mine Shaft’-inspired tunnels that allow riders to pass under our golf cart paths, and a variety of riding terrain: open meadows, cedar bush, hardwood forests, and shrub groves, all with challenging climbs and exhilarating descents.
The 10.5 km bike trail is not open in the winter months. Fat biking utilizes another trail on the Hockley Valley Resort property.

TRAILS & SAFETY

-
Helmets are mandatory while riding on the property.

The Bike Trails @ Hockley are developed to accommodate intermediate and advanced mountain bike riders. Please be aware that while our current trails consist of some flat sections with mostly rolling trails for those that like a little bit of up and down, steeper hill climbs are present. Riders should have the proper skill level and physical ability before purchasing their trail pass.
All of our trails are ONE WAY. We ask that you still bike with care and to be aware of corners, but there are fewer incidents on one way trails. Do not stop in areas where you are not visible from both directions and where you will block the path of the trail for other riders.
Always be alert should branches or rocks be knocked down by bikers before you.
We ask that all riders respect others on the trail and pass with care. A polite call of “on your left” as you go by a slower rider is the best way to pass.
Please watch for hikers on the Bruce Trail as it crosses the bike trail in a few places. Signage is in place for hikers to yield to bikers, but please proceed with caution at trail crossings.
