Guided Rides at Mt Washington

Grab your pals or make new ones, the groms guided ride is for kids ages 6-12 who would like to join other like minded riders in a small group, 2-hour session. This is a great way for young riders to learn new trails in the Bike Park and gain some serious trail time with priority lift loading. One of our guides who specializes in working with kids, will guide the group on the best trails Mount Washington Bike Park has to offer, focusing heavily on safety, inclusion, and FUN! This program is for kids comfortable riding green/blue/light black trails. If your child is new to the sport of mountain biking, we suggest them taking the Learn to Ride and Step-Up programs first.

Sessions will be available for the following ability levels:
  • Low speed (green/blue riders)
  • High speed (higher blue/black riders)
    (Please indicate at the time of booking)

Includes:

  • 2-hour lesson
Lesson Availability:
  • SATURDAY & SUNDAY at 12 pm & 2:30 pm
  • Lessons are based on guide availability
