Six million-acre Adirondack Park is the largest wilderness east of the Mississippi-and an underappreciated destination for world-class mountain biking. Peter Kick has selected 25 of the Park's best tours, ranging from 4 to 80 miles in length and including something for riders of every level. More importantly, he urges mountain bikers to ride each trail responsibly, respecting the Park's unique and fragile ecology as well as the rights of other trail users. Each tour includes directions to the trail, up-to-date maps and regulations, surface conditions, trail highlights, nearby bike repair shops, and detailed mile-by-mile directions.
