We have a once in a lifetime opportunity to advance a more inclusive trail system on the Mt. Tam Watershed while stewarding the land for future generations.
Mt. Tam is considered the birthplace of mountain biking for good reason. It has over 100 miles of single-track trails that have been enjoyed by recreationalists for close to a century. This incredible resource, right in our backyard, has 22,000 acres of land, and hundreds of miles of existing roads and trails. However, off-road cycling is restricted to the watershed fire roads.
The time has come to make trails on Mt. Tam available to off-road bikers, and to meet the needs and recreational interests of generations to come. We have an avenue to make this a reality.

The time is now to reimagine Mt. Tam
YOUR VOICE MATTERS
The Mt. Tamalpais watershed is open to the public for recreation, including bicycling, hiking and horseback riding. In an effort to support the diverse range of visitors coming to the watershed and to help protect water quality and natural resources, MMWD is initiating a recreation management planning process.
You need to be part of this process if you care about bicycle access on Mt. Tam! Here’s how to get involved:

DONATE TO THE CAUSE
We need your support to ensure a bike-friendly Plan. MCBC invested an abundance of time and resources into the creation of the Marin Open Space Road and Trail Management Plan. Since its adoption in 2014, a number of new trail experiences for people on bikes emerged. With your support we can ensure a similar result with the Watershed Rec Plan. Please give to the Off-Road Program here.
