Dollar Mountain Trail System
Grants Pass's new flagship trail system, on the hillside just northwest of downtown. The city bought the land in 2019 for recreation. The system opened with about 12 miles of purpose-built singletrack, including a handful of directional downhill runs, on nearly 1,000 feet of steep elevation. A second phase on adjoining BLM land is planned to bring it to about 25 miles. It was designed for every level, including adaptive mountain biking, and the Rogue Valley Mountain Bike Association helped build it.

Tips
- Mountain biking and hiking · Free
- Go for: The warm-up lap, then a downhill run with a view over town.
- Good to know: Hikers use it too, and the Crescent Drive route climbs straight to the summit. Construction is ongoing, so respect "Trail Closed" signs and check Trailforks for current conditions.
