Customer Reviews

I absolutely loved the MTO trails and found them safe, well maintained and a pleasure to ride. The buying of the pass was easy and trails were well sign posted. I would love to see the Hakerville trail route network become part of the MTO trail network given how closely they interconnect and i would be happy to pay more for my seasonal pass to include these trails for ease of convienience. Thank you for your commitment to making MTB safer and a pleasure for us all. It is much appreciated and the best value for money. - Nicolle
