Maple Lake East - Mountain Bike Staging Area

They have made so many improvements over the years. My husband loved the short walk to the outside tables. Beautiful new building and table area. Very peaceful, come on out and see all the improvements for yourself.

Great location for some single-track mountain biking! I've only done a couple loops, but I do love this location! A nice challenge for a noob like myself to get my biking legs in shape and get used to popping up over roots and whipping around corners quickly! Everyone here is polite and more than happy to let you pass or wait for you to move to the side so they can blast through

Excellent mountain biking area. Trail system well marked. I don't know how to really rank the technicality, but it seemed that one could take the trails full bore and it would be pretty challenging. But, you could also take the trails slower and it's still enjoyable. I had to put my feet down just enough to make me want to go back and get better!

The purple trail is one of the more challenging hiking paths in this area of the forest preserves, in particular when significant snowfall is present. Spectacular views of maple Lake.
