Mountain Bike Mondays

Self-Guided Rides at Deer Creek Hills Preserve

The Sacramento Valley Conservancy invites you to explore Deer Creek Hills Preserve on your mountain bike every Monday night July through October. The self-guided trails are open exclusively to riders anytime between 4:30pm-8:00pm. Docents mark new routes throughout the season to keep things exciting.

The terrain at Deer Creek Hills is a mix of rolling savanna grasslands, dotted with dramatic blue oaks and open vistas overlooking Sacramento’s largest open space preserve. The trails include cross country style single track, rocky creek crossings, with some technical climbing sections.

Deer Creek Hills serves as a working cattle ranch from November through May, as a result, the cattle have proven to be superb designers for creating flowy single track. SVC Docents will map and mark trails with cones for riders to explore. Marked trails change weekly to keep rides interesting. This venue is ideal for experienced riders with knowledge of shifting to lower gears for climbing hills, and bicycle handling for rapidly changing terrain.
