This 229-acre park has about six miles of trails, along with a nature center, a 90-acre lake, and some wetlands. Its trails also tie into the Capital Area Greenbelt, so you can string together quite a long walk if you like.

The towpath trail along Pennsylvania Canal may not be mountain biking in the conventional sense, but rugged tires do come in handy for biking on the towpath's dirt-and-wood-chips surface. This is an easy trail you can expect to share with walkers and runners, too.

While this isn't technical singletrack, it has enough rolling hills through the forest to make it a fun bike outing, and you can join it with the Canal Towpath to make a complete lake around Wildwood Lake, which is the beautiful centerpiece to Wildwood Park. Keep an eye out for wildlife like deer, too.
