Hillside mountain biking has entered a new day. I recently got the opportunity to ride the completely redesigned trail. This was a multi phase redesign that remodeled sections 3 and 4 last year and sections 1 and 2 this Spring. When you go ride a fresh trail, you have to understand that the trail will be slow and soft. A lot of the features in section 1 and 2 require you to bring some speed. Once the trail hardens up these sections will be a lot of fun.
Hillside has gone through a big transformation with this redesign. The old Hillside was a rooty, fall line trail with a lot of hard features ment for advanced riders. Beginners and intermediates could ride the trail but would find some parts well over their heads.
Almost all of that is now gone. There are a few spots remaining and maybe we’ll see others pop back up but now this trail is really meant to be for those beginner and intermediate riders. The new Hillside is an approachable trail that you can ride with your entire family. It’s a trail the community of Elk River should be proud to call their own.
