Ride the Pittsfield State Forest MTB loop, 7-mile advanced mountain bike loop
Hope you brought your climbing legs for this classic Pittsfield State Forest loop. Climb up the switchbacks of Honolulu trail, then navigate the top of the mountain on Tapanzee trail. Once you hit the paved road, check out the amazing view of NY state just past the turn for Turner trailhead drop in. The ride down Turner trail will be a great reward for all the climbing you just did – maybe you will come back for another lap… I would recommend descending down Parker Brook.
Visit the crew at Berkshire Bike and Board for more cycling recommendations in Pittsfield at 502C East Street. Open 7 days a week and offering mountain bike sales and bike repair.
