Sutton Bank Mountain Bike Trails

Sutton Bank is a mountain bike trail centre in Sutton Bank in the North York Moors run by Sutton Bank Bikes. Positioned 1000 feet high this area is also spoiled for the choice of natural trails to ride.

There is a skills area, an 4.8km green graded Cliff Trail, an 9km or optional extended 12km Blue Fort Trail, a 27km Paradise Red MTB trail, and a Pump Track and Cyclo-Cross course. They pride themselves on having trails with a more natural feel and epic views.

Cliff Trail (Green)

• The 4.8km family-friendly bike track takes cyclists through woods and farmland and along Sutton Bank’s cliff edge to the north of the visitor centre and car park. The key to the project is the combining of this new 4.5-kilometer family cycle route that takes cyclists along Sutton Bank cliff with the existing bridleway network. The family trail links into many kilometers of waymarked and managed routes suitable for a wide variety of abilities. You can also extend this to pick up part of the blue making it an 8.8km ride in total

Fort Trail (Blue) 

• The Fort Trail is a blue graded trail is km with an optional extension taking it to nearly 13 km. It takes in part of the Cliff Trail also. From this trail you can if you wish pick up either the Drovers or Paradie trail also.

Drovers Trail (Blue/Red)

• This steps it up a gear with a 14.5km red graded MTB trail. There is a neat tea room half way through.
