Flow Trails

The bread and butter of our system are our impeccable flow trails.  You'll find miles of flowy trails zipping up and down the hills and valleys of Copper Harbor.  Almost all are geared for intermediate riders, meaning just about everyone can find something to enjoy.

​

What is a flow trail exactly, and what makes them so fun?  These trails get their name from the liquid-like nature of how they traverse the landscape.  Unlike tougher trails that fight the landscape, flow trails work with it to give you an experience that will have you grinning from ear to ear.  Wide, swooping berms allow you to take corners comfortably at any speed.  Rollers give you that floating feeling on the ups, and a speed boost on the way down.  A well-designed flow trail will make climbing a breeze by offering you plenty of opportunities for quick downhill rest breaks in between relatively gentle rises.

​

Copper Harbor's flow trails are as diverse as the ecosystems they inhabit.  Ride the aptly-named The Flow from the top of Brockway Mountain to the bottom, a 3-mile journey full of immense Lake Superior views.  Similarly, Garden Brook is a feast for the senses as you speedily climb or descend, this time following the creek of the same name.  Woopidy Woo's two flavors (west and east) give you a taste of how different trails can be.  Cabin Life, Dancing Bear, Whipsaw... the list goes on and on.  You'll just have to try them all to find out which one you like best!
