Crosscut Summer Trail Access Information
In summer. we open our trails to mountain biking, hiking, trail running, and visiting with dogs! Learn more about Summer at Crosscut.
The typically trails open in late June, but opening is condition-dependent; Crosscut’s trails open later than other nearby trails because our property has many wetlands and the trails remain wet and susceptible to damage well into summer — learn more about why our trails open late
The trails are free and open to the public; we ask those who are able to invest in a Voluntary Summer Trail Pass
Public trail use is from sunrise to sunset
Our Nordic & Trails Center is open by appointment only to folks renting mountain bikes
In the event of an emergency, Crosscut does not offer any rescue or support services — you are responsible for your own safety
Please obey all closures — trail and facilities work is frequently done in the summer
Dogs must be under voice or leash control at all times
Dogs are not allowed in the biathlon stadium
Bikes are not allowed on the pavement — the paved trail is for rollerskiing only
Please pick up after your dog
