Catamount Outdoor Family Center

Catamount Outdoor Family Center invites your kiddos to come ride mountain bikes and increase their confidence in this afternoon program! As a once or twice-weekly club, the COFC Youth MTB Club has three different options depending on your kiddo’s preference. Expect them to come home raving about their new friends, singletrack skills, or the sick jump they finally were able to hit! Youth MTB Club is a great way to get outdoors for kiddos who have daytime commitments, and signup is on a monthly basis. Spots still open for both August and September!

🚨Please note we have quite a lot of invasive species removal happening on our trail network throughout the next week.
Trails in the Northwest section are most impacted. They should be clearly taped off indicating where to avoid. Please stay alert and comply with the contractors working in the area.
We know it’s annoying when trails close but it’s temporary, and very worth it in the long run to work towards eradication of these species in our network.

Thanks for understanding!

Taught by women, for women!
Join us for an encouraging half-day clinic, designed to instill confidence, build skills and have fun! Expect to roll away with a solid foundation of skills, including body mechanics, bike handling, braking, and negotiating trail features.
This clinic is intended for novice riders.

May 30th, 8am. $80/person, which includes a membership to ride all day long.

Pre-registration is required and limited, sign up on our website today!

If you aren’t available on May 30th, don’t fret. We will be holding these women’s clinics all season long, so sign up for our newsletter and we will let you know when the next one is. We love folks to feel empowered on their bikes!

Join us for one of TWO great events happening on Saturday!
We are holding our first beginner mountain bike clinic of the season. Whether you’re new to mountain biking or looking to refine your skills, this clinic is perfect for getting started! Our experienced instructors will guide you through the basics of technique, equipment, and safety while you enjoy the beautiful landscape at Catamount Outdoor Family Center.
Additionally, our Executive Director John Atkinson will be leading an educational walk to learn more about Fungi Vitality. We will discuss home growing and wild foraging techniques, along with the multitude of ways to use fungi to enhance health and improve aging.

Both will be a great time, so register on our website!
