OZ Trails is inviting cycling enthusiasts to become founding members of the new OZ Trails Bike Park, with membership benefits including early access to trails and exclusive perks as the park prepares to open.
The founding membership program marks a significant milestone for the Northwest Arkansas trail organization, which has spent years expanding its network of world-class cycling infrastructure across the region. OZ Trails manages hundreds of miles of mountain biking, gravel, and adaptive cycling trails throughout Benton County and surrounding areas, from thepopular Coler MTB Preserve in Bentonville to the beginner-friendly paths at Lake Fayetteville.
Those interested in supporting the bike park’s development can sign up through OZ Trails’ website. Founding members will receive priority access when the park opens, along with recognition as early supporters of the project.
The bike park represents the latest addition to Northwest Arkansas’ rapidly growing outdoor recreation economy. The region has become a destination for cyclists nationwide, drawing riders to established trail systems like the Bella Vista Back 40, Little Sugar trails, and the adaptive cycling facilities at Hand Cut Hollow. OZ Trails coordinates trail development across multiple communities, working with local governments and land managers to create connectivity between rider-friendly routes.
Northwest Arkansas has invested heavily in cycling infrastructure over the past decade, recognizing the economic and quality-of-life benefits that trail systems bring. The OZ Trails network spans from Fayetteville’s Centennial Park to the gravity-focused riding at Blowing Springs and the technical challenges at Marble Flats near Eureka Springs. The organization also maintains the Razorback Greenway, a 36-mile paved trail connecting communities throughout the region.
For families and recreational riders, the bike park will offer new opportunities close to home. Northwest Arkansas residents have access to trails ranging from the gentle paths at Lake Atalanta in Rogers to the more advanced descents at Mount Kessler and the downhill sections near Ponca. The new bike park will complement these existing resources, providing a dedicated space for skill development and community riding.
OZ Trails publishes regular updates through its newsletter and blog, keeping riders informed about new trail openings, maintenance schedules, and community events. The organization encourages interested riders to visit oztrails.com for the latest information on membership details and park opening timelines.
