Many can tell you about Welcome Mountain, but not many are aware of the secret that is Texas Frontier Trails Western Heritage Park (3051 North Oak Avenue) in Mineral Wells. However, this is exactly where the new mountain bike trails can be found hiding. Less than two miles from downtown Mineral Wells, these trails perfectly utilize the unused space in the park, allowing bikers to get a fresh perspective of this lesser-known piece of land in town.
A typical rock garden on the North Trails of Western Heritage Park Trails… WMBC volunteers take a break from working to create the Western Heritage Park Trail in Mineral Wells, Texas.
Four new mountain biking trails have opened in Mineral Wells. This was announced over the weekend by WMBC (Weatherford Mountain Bike Club) after the many months of effort they put in to create these trails. Members of the club and volunteers cut through wildland to make the 4.35-mile loop that consists of four primary trails.
Intensity Level of the Trails:
Orange trail: Beginner
Green trail: Novice
Blue trail: Intermediate
Red trail: Expert
(more details on each trail at the end of the article)
In other exciting news, Flying Tire Bicycles announced they would be opening a new store in downtown Mineral Wells making our town more friendly to an adventurous lifestyle.
Here is WMBC’s announcement with all the details:
Maybe we will start to see some serious mountain biking competitions come through Mineral Wells in the near future but till then, take a go at these trails and see if you have what it takes to ride the red trail!
