Montvale Park

Montvale Park is a beautiful bike trail park in Bedford County. Most stream crossings have footbridges and are easily forded.

Wildlife in this area includes deer, turkey, squirrels and the occasional coyote, so be careful as you ride.

While the rest of the park is still in development, the trail system is complete and ideal for mountain biking, trail running, and hiking. There are mountain cross race series, disc golf, and biking classes available if you call beforehand.
