Rules and Trail Etiquette

Respect trail closures.
Bella Vista is always working to improve our trail system. If a trail closed, please stay off until it’s open.

Respect the existing trail network.
Do not alter or remove existing trail features or build new trails without the express permission of the Trails Manager. If you see a major issue that needs to be addressed, please report it 
here.

Respect other trail users.Trail etiquette sign
Most of Bella Vista’s trails are multi-use, so be familiar with the standard for right of way. Mountain bikers should always yield to all other users, and downhill traffic should yield to uphill traffic. When passing others, smiling and giving a nod and thank you go a long way towards building a positive trail user community. 

Respect nature.
Be a steward of the land you are riding on. Pack out anything you pack in and respect any wildlife you encounter.
