Learn moreAbout Ankle Biters Loop, Pemberton MTB Park
This trail is a short, easy loop along the top of the south side of the ‘Pump Hill’ trails. Ridden clockwise, the trail features a gentle, gradual climb followed by an equally gradual descent with a few small humps and corners, making it perfect for those not wanting much speed. It also makes a good warm-up or time-passer for those riding with others of varying speed and ability.
Locals Tip: A few pedal strokes on the descending side makes for more fun.
