Kent Ridge Mountain Biking Trail is located at the edge of the Southern Ridges of Singapore.

The narrow ridge and its secondary forest set the scene for great wooded mountain biking.

This 3km long trail with emphasis on single track riding, tight technical downhill and ladder bridges riding started off as a project collaboration with

Singapore Amateur Cycling Association and National Parks Board.

Dirtraction crew is involved in the initial design and build process of the trail, and subsequently trail audit, expansion and trail specific maintainance consultancy for the care takers.

The initial trail build at the 3rd quarter of 2005 comprise of 1.8km of single tracks weaving through various existing walking paths, steps and a cycle path at the side of the road climb.

The trail brought fresh influx of riding, changes the mountain biking requirements in Singapore in a blink, simply by trail design and surfaces.

Unlike the other trails in Singapore before the existence of Kent Ridge Mountain Biking Trail, tight corners and singletrack riding test riders slow speed controls and ability, lowering the risk of speed related offroad accident found previously in the other trails.

more climbs and sections are introduce in 2006-2007, where longer switchback climbs and descent options allow for a smoother flow, correcting various touchy section created previously and allows for better hikers and riders seperations.

in 2008, the trail get an extra 1.2km in length where the temporary trail along the road climb is now replace with a bi-directional singletrack that allows for a fun climb and yet provide the thrill needed in a Super D ride.

the trails offers opportunity for more riding in the future, and Dirtraction will remain committed to ensure the trail network grow in a sustainable manner.
