Hot off the trails: We’ve updated our rules to allow Class 1 (pedal-assist) ebikes and adaptive mountain bikes on natural surface trails.

Electric dirt bikes and throttled motorized bikes remain prohibited on all Montgomery Parks trails. This is because they cause erosion, damage trails and natural habitats, and create safety risks.

See something unsafe on our trails? Report misuse, unsafe behavior, or trail damage to Park Police or Customer Service by calling the non-emergency number 301-949-8010.

Help us keep our trails safe for everyone to enjoy!
