Pontiac Lake-Mountain Bike Trail

The natural, 11-mile, single-track mountain bike trail has been ranked as one of the "Top 100 Trails" in the United States and is considered one of the most technical trails in southeast Michigan due to its rocky, hilly terrain and sharp turns. Marked by orange trail markers, the route goes through old farm fields, marshes, ponds and heavily forested areas inhabited by a variety of wildlife. Mountain bikers travel clockwise on the trail, and hikers are encouraged to hike in the opposite direction for safety.
