Location: Bend, OR
Mt Bike Trail Map: Posted at trail head
Difficulty: Easy to Black Diamond
Phil’s Trail is one of my favorite Mt Biking destinations in Bend, Oregon. It’s only 8 minutes from downtown Bend and has much to offer. You can ride a near endless variety of loops and trails. There is map posted at the trail head which will help guide you; there are also junction markers when the trail splits off. The trails are mostly rolling terrain and mid slopes; the difficulty ranges from easy to black diamond with rocks, switch backs and drop offs. There are a number of mounds to jump, steep corners and trees to maneuver through.
Quick Note: Forest Service Pass requirement is not enforced.
