California
Paradise Royale Mountain Bike Trail
Since 2005, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has been working cooperatively with mountain biking advocates and clubs, such as the International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA), to plan, develop, and construct an environmentally sustainable, challenging mountain bike trail system in the Paradise Ridge area of the King Range National Conservation Area, situated near 2850' high Queen Peak, north of Shelter Cove Road. The proposed system will include 30 miles of trails encompassing varying levels of difficulty and diverse scenic vistas, terrain features and riding experiences. The trail system will provide mountain biking opportunities in a region where legal, single-track mountain biking-specific trails do not exist on public lands.
The Paradise Royale Mountain Bike Trail was dedicated on National Public Lands Day, Septmeber 27, 2008. The NPLD celebration was to recognize all the groups and individuals who contributed 4,000 volunteer hours to build the 14-mile loop trail.
