The Chuckanut mountain bike trails are scenically located right on the shores of the Puget Sound, and have some really fun downhill riding. Located in Larrabee State Park, these mountain bike trails can be accessed by pedaling, or by shuttling. They offer long and sustained downhill singletrack mountain biking, and the views from these trails down toward the water are unbeatable. Mountain biking in the Chuckanuts is primarily suited for more advanced riders looking for technical downhill riding, although there are also some beginner and intermediate trail options in the Chuckanuts, too. While some mountain bikers choose to ride downhill bikes here, all-mountain and trails bikes can handle the Chuckanuts just fine.

Located at a low elevation the mountain bike trails at Chuckanut Mountain can be ridden all year long. After rainfall, the rocks, roots, and technical section will definitely be slippery, so ride with caution.
