The gates will be open starting Thursday nights prior to scheduled weekend rides for those who would like to camp the night before the Friday ride. Call Mountwood Park 304-679-3611 Monday-Friday to let them know you’re coming to camp on the weekends (Office is closed Sat. & Sun.) so they can make arrangements to have restrooms open, collect fees and get waiver forms signed (unless you’re coming on one of the organized club rides).

Generators and portable corrals are welcomed. City water, restrooms, showers and horse bathing area available. Campfires are allowed in burn rings, please do not place the burn rings on the asphalt. We have worked very hard on this camp and the trails, there is still much work to be done, most trails are well marked now and beautiful color coded laminated maps of the trails are available. In order to recover the cost of production and development we ask for a nominal fee of $10 each, these are available for purchase through Brent and Tara Patterson, or the Administrative Office at Mountwood Park. Please be patient as work continues to improve your riding and camping experience. While Mountwood will manage the camp, WCHRC, Inc. will continue to make improvements and maintain much of the camp and the trails, this is why members enjoy lower rates.
