Inside Eureka Springs' New MTB Trails
By now it’s no secret that Northwest Arkansas has absolutely exploded with mountain bike trails over the past few years. The region is now home to over 200 miles (and counting) of singletrack. With zones like Kessler, The Back 40, Coler, and Slaughter Pen there is something in the area for all levels of riders. There is even a sidewalk flow trail in Bentonville, which may possibly be the coolest way imaginable for a little MTB grom to get to school.
All of the new trails and improved access has spurred the progression within the local mountain bike scene; riders can now work their way from foot-high drops to 12-footers like the “Hammer” at Coler. Naturally, riders continue to push the envelope and as they do, seek more challenging trail. The new trails in Eureka Springs, AR promise to answer that call.
The Lake Leatherwood downhill trail has been a highlight of the area for years, but is not as trafficked as one might think. Located in Eureka Springs, about an hour from NWA, the trail is well worth the commute as it offers some of the best gnar in the area.
With the help of some of the best elevation change in the region, the folks at OZ Trail are now working to take the zone to a whole new level.
Intended for riders of all levels, there are seven brand new trails being built in the Leatherwood area that utilize the same elevation variety that makes the existing trails so much fun. I was fortunate enough to get a sneak peak of one of the more advanced trails a few months back and as soon as I dropped in I knew it was going to be awesome.
The new trail had proper jumps with mandatory gaps, steep berms and seriously gnarly rock features that definitely require some skills to get through. Best enjoyed with shuttle laps and lots of snacks, the new trails should be all finished and ready to rip early this Summer 2018.
Eureka isn’t all rock drops and berms though, the town itself is also incredible. Rolling into Eureka Springs you feel like you're rolling back in time. You’ll find the grooviest people, eclectic shops, and lots of Led Zeppelin posters. This Ozark mountain town is perched along steep hillsides and dissected by wild rainbow staircases. Make sure to do a bit of cruising around, you never know what you might find.
The area makes for a great day trip from the rest of NWA and there's a campground at Lake Leatherwood that makes for an even better overnight trip. Once you're done riding and ready to grab some food make sure to swing by Aquarius and stuff your face with as many tacos as you can handle + an ice cold Michelada to wash them down.

I once encountered the harrowing consequences of a cryptocurrency scam, which plunged me into a deep sense of despair. I can attest, from personal experience, that it is truly a nightmare. My investment, a substantial sum in Ethereum, was effectively held hostage by an online investment platform. I had anticipated significant returns; however, I was oblivious to the impending distressing experience. As time progressed, my initial excitement morphed into anguish upon realizing that the platform I had trusted was nothing more than a cleverly devised scheme aimed at defrauding unsuspecting individuals passionate about the cryptocurrency market, leaving us feeling exposed, deceived, and hard to trust again. I discovered CYBERGENIEHACKPRO upon embarking on a money recovery journey, a team of experts specializing in asset recovery, dedicated to assisting victims in tracing and reclaiming their misappropriated funds. The process of recovering my lost Ethereum seemed daunting, as I had previously read that cryptocurrency transactions are untraceable and irretrievable. However, CYBERGENIEHACKPRO has proven this notion to be incorrect. Although the recovery process was intricate, I was elated to learn that my lost assets had been successfully retrieved. To anyone who may find themselves in a similar unfortunate situation, I strongly urge you to maintain hope and seek out CYBERGENIEHACKPRO through a Google search. I recommend contacting C Y B E R G E N I E (@) C Y B E R S E R V I C E S (.) C O M for valuable money recovery advice. Their private website can be found at ~ https ://cyber-genie-hackpro. info/ ~.
