Mountain Bike
Cedar Hill State Park is home to the premier North Texas mountain bike trail. The DORBA trail, named for the volunteers of the Dallas Off Road Biking Association, was built by mountain bikers for mountain bikers. Over 1200 acres of prime mountain bike landscape are crisscrossed with 15 miles of intense riding. With three loops, which get progressively longer and tougher, this trail system offers something for all levels of riders. Trails take the riders in and out of dense trees and open valleys most of which is one-way single track. Difficult uphill climbs and fast downhill descents are encountered throughout the ride. The trails are very well maintained by DORBA with signs, bridges, erosion prevention, etc. The tree coverage found throughout the park is a great place to rest after a long climb or unsuspected crash. Be careful when coming around a blind curve.This trail is closed after rainfall so call 972/291-3900 and press star 2 for trail conditions. Courtesy of Singletracks.com
