Western North Carolina is quickly becoming one of the most exciting

destinations for mountain bikers in the Eastern U.S. — and one of the most

anticipated openings is right in our backyard.

 

Hatley Pointe Mountain Bike Park opens August 2026, just 2 miles from

Mars Hill Haven. Whether you're chasing lift-served laps, flow trails, or

technical singletrack, this destination is worth booking now.

 

ABOUT THE BIKE PARK:

📍  Location: Hatley Pointe Resort, Mars Hill, NC — 2 miles from the cabin

📅  Opening: Soft open August–October 2026

🛠️  Trail Design: Elevated Trail Design (industry-leading trail builders)

🚵  9 purpose-built trails for all skill levels

🌊  Trail types: Flow trails, cross-country, technical singletrack

🍂  Prime season: August–October — peak fall foliage riding

WHY VISIT IN FALL:

The August–October opening window is no coincidence — this is one of the most

spectacular times of year in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Crisp air, golden and

crimson canopies overhead, trails that are dry and fast underfoot. Pair your

riding days with hot tub soaks, s'mores at the fire pit, and deep mountain

sleep that only comes after a full day on the trails.
