Mountain Bike Basecamp in Crosby – True North Basecamp
Lakefront cabins, tents and campsites on the edge of Cuyuna's singletrack
About
True North Basecamp sits on the shore of the Cuyuna Country State Recreation Area and works well as a Mountain Bike Basecamp in Crosby. It mixes lakefront cabins, furnished tents and campsites for riders and paddlers.
Bike facilities
The campground lists bike wash stations among its amenities, which comes in handy after a day on Cuyuna’s red dirt. For rentals, sales and service, local bike shops in Crosby are close by.
Trails nearby
The basecamp offers convenient access to the Cuyuna Lakes mountain bike trails, a network with more than 70 miles of singletrack recognized by IMBA as one of the best in the country. In winter, part of the network is groomed for fat biking.
Good to know
Shops and restaurants in Crosby, Ironton and Cuyuna are a short ride away, and the lakes are right there for a swim or paddle on a rest day.
Stay options
Choose between lakefront cabins, furnished tents for a glamping-style trip and regular campsites for those bringing their own gear. Riders traveling in a group can mix and match, and everyone shares the same quick access to the trails and the bike wash stations.
