Kingdom Trails and Burke Mountain Entering the World of Lift-Access Mountain Biking
Now among the hundred miles of cross country mountain bike trails, Kingdom Trails will now offer lift served mountain biking at Burke Mountain Ski Area and the addition of a new downhill bike park. Burke Mountain will open the Sherburne Express chairlift from the Base Lodge beginning mid June, on weekends and holidays until mid October. The chair lift will access four already established, but improved and re-routed single track trails, and the new premier jump trail, Knightslayer, featuring world class table tops, step ups, step downs, rollers and sky high berms. “Collaborating with Burke Mountain to offer a variety of downhill mountain bike trails for all abilities will keep us as a premier mountain bike destination.” says CJ Scott, KTA Trail Manager.
A special grand opening date is tentatively set for June 25, 2011.
Kingdom Trail Association, voted the BEST TRAIL NETWORK in North America by Bike Magazine, provides recreation and education opportunities for local residents and visitors while working to conserve natural resources and create economic stimulation. KTA has permission of 50 landowners and businesses that make the 100 mile four season non-motorized trail system possible.
