Biking

Wyalusing State Park

Wyalusing’s two mountain bike trails (Whitetail Meadows and Mississippi Ridge) are not designed for high speed travel. They can become soft and slippery when wet and can erode quickly during heavy rains. Remember, hikers have the right of way.

Mississippi Ridge trail (1.8 miles)

Mississippi Ridge trail starts at Homestead Picnic Shelter (parking available), crosses Cathedral Tree Drive and runs parallel to it until Henneger Point Picnic Area. The trail follows the bluff along the Mississippi River, ending at Henneger Point Picnic Area. An excellent view of the Mississippi River is available from Henneger Point. Bicyclists are welcome to bike the return trip back to Homestead Picnic Shelter via Cathedral Tree Drive.

Whitetail Meadows trail (1.7 or 3.1 mile loop)

The Whitetail Meadows trail begins at the Huser Astronomy Center parking lot. Whitetail Meadows follows the boundary between woods and grassland. Whitetail Meadows trail is an excellent trail for the less experienced cross-country skier.
