Mountain Biking Guides
Our trails showcase a variety of riding options including downhill tracks, flow trails, traditional cross country, and burly technical options. The majority of our trails are classified as intermediate (blue square), ranging from fast flow trails like Garden Brook to old-school chunky routes like Ma Maki. Given our epic terrain, it's no surprise that we have many advanced and expert-level (black and double black) as well. Get your big hits on Overflow and Dueling Banjos or test out your technical skills on the downright brutal Paul's Plunge or Red Trail. Last but certainly not least, we have been adding more easy trails in recent years for our newer and less adventurous riders. The Orchard Trail, Hunters Point Trail, and other options at Fort Wilkins allow you to explore this history of the area from the comfort of your bike. More easy trails are on the way in the next few years to connect these and other destinations in the area.
Shuttles are available through Keweenaw Adventure Company and East Bluff Bike Park, but all trails are accessible from trailheads or public roads. Uphill riders have the right-of-way on bidirectional trails.
​
Class 1 E-Bikes are permitted on many trails; see our dedicated E-bike page for details.
Hiking Guides
For the same reasons that mountain biking in Copper Harbor is such a draw, our area's hiking options are equally incredible. Almost all of the Copper Harbor Trails are open for hiking and trail running, with the exception of our downhill-only mountain bike trails. Everywhere else is fair game. Hikers and trail runners have the right of way on trails – that means mountain bikers must yield to those on foot. These trails were built for all non-motorized, human-powered users and there's plenty of room to share.
​
​Popular mixed-use trails like Garden Brook, Raptor Ridge, West Woopidy Woo, and The Flow can get busy on weekends, while other trails offer more solitude even on busy days. Berry patches are scattered across the entire area and are easily missed by passing mountain bikers. That means more of the good stuff for those on foot! Explore some of our favorite suggested hikes below.
