Lone Lake Park Mountain Bike Trail

Line of mountain bikers off-bike smiling at camera Lone Lake Park's 5-mile, multi-use mountain bike trail entices riders, hikers and snowshoers to experience the fun and natural beauty of Minnetonka's Big Woods remnant forest.

Two trailheads provide users easy access from Rowland Road, in the park's southwest section, or Shady Oak Road in the east. We encourage riders to leave their cars at home and access the park from one of our great bike trails, including the Minnesota River Bluffs Regional Trail.

Lone Lake Park is designed to accommodate a variety of mountain biking skill levels, and the trail offers ample challenges, from the steep topography to the fast, flowy single-track.

The trail is also open to hikers and trail runners in dry months, as well as snowshoers in winter.
