The numerous forest roads and trails scattered throughout Becker
County are maintained to varying degrees and by multiple public and
private agencies.
| Mountain View Recreation Area |
The 3 miles of trails at
Mountain View Recreation Area wind their way through a mature,
mixed hardwood forest. The trails are wide enough for
side-by-side riding and offer several different loop options. Be
aware that these trails are used for hiking as well as
equestrian riding in the summer months and cross-country skiing
in the winter. Separate single-track mountain bike/snowshoe
trails are also being developed within the recreation area as
well and will cross the hiking/equestrian/x-c skiing trails at
various locations. Please do not ride horses on the trails after
they have been groomed for cross-country skiing; usually
beginning in early to mid-December. Horses are also not allowed
on the single-track trails. Parking for 10-15 vehicles is
located along Tower Road.
