Loon Mountain Bike Park

White Mountains downhill, gondola ride included.

Loon’s bike park drops more than 1,000 vertical feet over 15-plus miles of trail, from the gentle three-mile Mainline to the deep berms of Derailer and the jumps on King Pin. A day ticket also covers the Gondola Skyride and summit attractions, and the East Ridge cross-country network follows the Pemigewasset River. It suits beginners and intermediates, and mixed groups where not everyone rides.
