I goto Lost Trails in the Pocono Manor PA nice place to ride they get $35 dollars for the day. I have been to tower city with some friends it is kinda rocky and they want you buy the membership after you go once. Ride The Lost Trails

Go up 61 north into Pottsville. When you come into Pottsville go past the Fairlane Village Mall on your left. About a mile past the mall there is a wal-mart on your right. If you pull into the wal-mart parking lot look to your left up the big hill/cliff. That area is know as shenandoa. You can ride up there and there are miles of trails and abandoned strip mines. Be careful though...there are some dangerous spots. Don't fly on any of the trails until you get familiar with them. There are some brutal drop offs at the end of some of the trails and you don't see them until it's too late. I'm not sure if anyone will give you any shit about unloading at wal mart but there are places in town behind walmart that are safe. You can also go up 61 north to cressona and hang a left on 183. Take 183 to 209 (sheetz on the corner)and hang a left. Follow 209 for a few miles and you will see a Turkey hill on your left. Right at Turkey Hill bare left. I have not ridden here but my neighbor has and he said it's a pretty good riding spot. You would have to ask at the Turkey Hill where to go. I think he said they call it Tremont or something like that. Supposedly it's just up the road from Turkey Hill. I have been past there but never actually rode there.
