A great place to ride a gravel or mountain bike. Miles of trails. Worth a stop if you are in the area. Remember to bring your MD state parks pass or pay and display. Parks like this are worth supporting.

It is some of the best single track in the Philadelphia/Wilmington area. Lots of flow with some rocks and roots to play on.

Had a nice 3.2 mile hike with the scouts. Fairhill has good trails. Would love to ride a horse through their sometime.

I visited Fair Hill for mountain biking, starting my visit at the park office (buy the map, its a good way to support the park, its vital for your visit, and for me, at least, a printed map is useful). Many parks / outdoor areas only begrudgingly tolerate bikers. At the Fair Hill office, they were friendly, and helpful, helping me find trails that fit my skill level and the time I had available. Their printed map shows 4-6 marked trails, but there are many, many more criss-crossing the area. The entire area is beautiful. After spending eight hours (over two visits) there, it seems to demand much more to see all there is to see.One word of advice: dont be afraid to talk to other users you see on the trial. I was able to get tips on navigation and unmapped trails that greatly improved my ride.The only caution I would provide is to pay extra close attention to the trail rules of the road. These trails, particularly the marked ones, are heavily used, by hikers, bikers of all skill levels, and by horses. Simple communication and an understanding of the rules of the road make a better experience for all, and a spooked horse is no fun for the rider, or for anyone nearby.Most of all, just get out there, explore, discover, and enjoy. For its proximity to Newark and Wilmington, this place provides an incredible and beautiful experience.

Outstanding paths. Well kept, plus plenty of places for my dog to get water. Only gripe I have is, could have marked (Geeen trail) the trail a little better. Weve done the Orenge and Red. Both were marked much better. We wound up getting on the wrong path, but luckily we get back on the right trail. Blue one next. :-).
