  • Located on land leased from the Greater Cincinnati International Airport, England-Idlewild Park is just 24 minutes from downtown Cincinnati in Burlington Kentucky. The park offers a wide variety of sporting and family activities including a playground, basketball courts, baseball fields, Frisbee golf, fishing, family movie nights, a dog park, paved trails and more. Our reason for visiting is the park’s variety of fun and racy, mountain bike trails with loops suitable for riders of all ages and skill levels!

    Use the right 2 lanes to take exit 181 for KY-18 toward Burlington/Florence.
    Continue on KY-18 W. for 4.2 miles to make a right on N. Jefferson St. in Burlington which becomes Idlewild Rd.
    Park entrance is .8 miles on the right.

    This year I have really jumped into mountain biking and this park is FANTASTIC! It has enough trails for learning and more advanced that are not too difficult! Cannot stay away!

    It's my favorite so far. I really enjoyed visiting this park. It has plenty of technical riding, but still friendly enough for a rookie like me.

      Kris Vladimirov England Idlewild is a park we keep going back to. It's definitely one of our favorites as well.

    I'm looking for a place for a quick ride on the way down 75 from Michigan to Knoxville in about month. Are the rooty, technical bits still around? I love that stuff.

      They are cutting some new Trail sections at England Idlewild but yes, there are still plenty of rooty technical sections. It's one of the trail systems in our area we visit most often. Visit devou Park for our most technical Enduro like trails.

    This video is dated almost two years now... is the jump line and pump track still in good condition? I'm traveling through from Chattanooga up north and thinking about making a stop with my bike.

    • @mountainbikeondemand
      @mountainbikeondemand  5 лет назад +2

      I will ask around tomorrow and see if they have been maintaining it.

    • @mountainbikeondemand

      We were told by a friend that the pump track and jump line at England Idlewild need some work. Lebanon Bike Park would probably be a better bet if you want to do some pump tracks. They have a couple of paved ones. If you are more into riding trails, England Idlewild would be a good place. We have written there this year and the trails are in good shape. Feel free to hit us back if you have any other questions regarding your visit.

      MTB Cincinnati - thank you for checking on that for me. I appreciate the help

      @@mountainbikeondemand - It looks like lebanon has a jump line too -- probably a similar result at england idlewood I would assume? The jump lines I see look good, but not sure how much up keep has been going on. I would enjoy riding their pump track so might still get over that direction and check it out. Appreciate your help.

    Never saw a trail sign with a trail name on it out there. All pretty unmarked. You basically know that you are just somewhere inside a great big circle of circle of trails. Some fun to be had, but again, you are going in circles.

    Great review but I'm kind of surprised you guys would have a video with one of the riders going the organ donor route and not wearing a helmet.

    • @mountainbikeondemand
      @mountainbikeondemand  7 лет назад +4

      We have been nagging Jay to buy a helmet and he will have one before his next appearance. I saw he had a RUclips channel about getting involved in riding in our area and wanted to give him a chance to grow with our crew. He's a very nice guy. We agree it is very important to protect your head. He did skip out on a few sections of trail hat were especially risky. Safety gear might be a good topic for the Bike Check portion of an upcoming videos. Point well taken.
