Trails Projects

MCBC advocates for and tracks various trails and off-road projects and initiatives including bike-related construction, renovation, and development around Marin and the greater San Francisco Bay Area that impacts Marin bicyclists.

Marin Water Road and Trail Management Plan Update

Learn about the Marin Water Road and Trail Management Plan update and its significance for local road and trail management.

Dias Ridge Trail Phase II and III

Dias Ridge Trail Phase II and III will give bicyclists a safe alternative to Highway 1. It will reduce the number of bikes traveling through the Muir Beach community and closes a multi-use gap in the Bay Area Ridge Trail.

Sorich Park Trail

Sorich Park Trail improvements to allow bikes have been approved in San Anselmo and will connect to Marin Open Space and San Rafael. This project is now with Marin County Parks for next steps.

Easy Grade Trail

Easy Grade Trail, part of MCBC’s 3 Gaps initiative, would link Pantoll to Mountain Theater for safer multi-use access, closing a key gap in a bike-legal, natural surface, car-free route from the Golden Gate to Point Reyes.

Olompali State Historic Park

Olompali State Park and California State Parks are considering a Change in Use to part of the trail network at Olompali State Historic Park to include cyclists.

Fox Lane Trail

Fox Lane Trail in Terra Linda/Sleepy Hollow Preserve offers cyclists a safer, direct connection between trail networks away from traffic.

Eagle Rock Trail

The newly completed Eagle Rock Trail realignment reduces erosion, improves habitat, and creates safe, sustainable access for hikers, cyclists, and equestrians.

Cascade Canyon Bridges

Originally proposed by MCBC and Friends of Corte Madera Creek Watershed in 2016, this project will install two recreational bridges over San Anselmo Creek in Cascade Canyon. The bridges will allow trail users to lighten their impact on the environment by keeping foot, bike and horse traffic out of the creek bed.

Point Reyes Trails Master Plan

Point Reyes trail plan update will guide future access and expansion; MCBC is working to ensure bicycling is included in planning.

Mt. Tam Watershed E-Bike Pilot Program

Learn about Mt. Tam Watershed pilot program's e-bike access on fire roads, balancing recreation, safety, and environmental stewardship and the road to get here.

Liberty Gulch Trail

Liberty Gulch Trail, Mt. Tam watershed's newly completed trail, allows for safe access for cyclists and hikers. Part of MCBC's 3 Gaps Initiative, Liberty Gulch trail is one of three priority gaps in a car-free route from the Golden Gate to Point Reyes.
