Watch This Video Of Bootpacking It In Harold Town

Harold Town Conservation Area in the east end of Peterborough is known for its mountain bike trails. The site is the former home of a ski hill resort, abandoned since the early 1980s. These guys went bookpacking on it recently. Watch for yourself...

Lend A Hand With The Trails At Harold Town Conservation

Peterborough has a fantastic network of Mountain Biking trails at 2611 Old Norwood Road hosted by the Otonabee Region Conservation Authority. Announced early last year, Harold Town offers trails for all skill levels, and thanks to the wonderful help of the riders, it is constantly evolving. Today (November 9th), IMBA Canada will be dropping by to teach a course on trail building, offering both an in-class tutorial and a hands-on workshop. You have to register to attend, so be sure to sign up as space is limited.
