Stratton Bike Park: Mountain Bike Lessons and Rentals

Group Lessons

If you’re new to downhill mountain biking and interested in a fun, outdoor and high-intensity weekend activity, Group Mountain Bike Lessons are a great option. Pick up your rental at the Junior Mountain School, head outside to link up with one of our experienced Mountain Bike Instructors and have a great day on the trails learning how to safely operate a downhill bike with your group. Meet new friends and take up a new hobby at southern Vermont’s highest peak.

Learn:

  • Bike setup and operation
  • Rider body positions and movements
  • Braking
  • Cornering
  • Jumping
  • And More…

Private Lessons

Whether you are brand new to downhill biking or looking to work on a specific facet of the sport, Private Lessons allow for an intimate learning experience between you and one of our top Stratton Bike Park instructors. Guests who are new to the sport, though maybe are more inclined to continue mountain biking after their weekend might find Private Mountain Bike Lessons better suited for them. You will have your instructor’s undivided attention for the duration of your lesson making for a great opportunity to work on specific problems you’re having or techniques you’d like to home in on.
