The Lutsen area provides a variety of biking opportunities from easy paved trails, dirt and mud forest service roads, to tight single track.

The newest section of the trail runs right by the
Sea Villa Townhomes.
Rental bikes are available on site. This section of
the trail is 11 miles long. From the Sea Villas its an easy
ride to Tofte. From there you can continue on to the
Temperance River where a a bridge crosses a narrow canyon with
rapids and falls below. This is a great spot to stop and
hike a bit.
For a taste of Forest Service road riding, head up Onion River Road to the Oberg parking lot, then ride your bike to the end of the road. Round trip is 11km.
For single track mountain biking, head to Pincushion Mountain and ride the ski trails and the trails specifically designed for biking. Technical bridges, rock beds, and other features await your fat tires.
