About the Delaware Valley Ridge Riders

The Delaware Valley Ridge Riders were founded in the late 1960's in Delaware County. We are proud members of the New York State Snowmobile Association (NYSSA). Delaware County is a host for over 350 miles of New York State corridor trails, and our club maintains over 70 of these trails!

Visit Our Trails

Our club is a steward for two New York State parks; Delaware Wild Forest (Campbell Mountain) and the Bear Spring Mountain Game Management. Trail C2 will lead you through both of these parks with numerous secondary trails for your touring enjoyment.


Bear Spring Mountain is one of the best kept secrets in the Catskill Forest Preserve. It is typical for these trails to have a snow depth of at least 18-25 inches, even when there is no snow at lower elevations. The trails on Bear Spring Mountain will have you riding through the scenic Catskills at an elevation of 2,600 feet! This area is a snowmobile haven, sometimes referred to as a "Mini Tug Hill". These trails are very wide, full of adventure, and very well maintained by our club volunteers. While you are here, please be sure to sign in at the brown boxes in the State Parks!

So, What Are You Waiting For?

The town of Downsville provides gas, food, lodging, and services to connector trails and neighboring clubs. We hold several club events throughout the season, including club rides, poker runs, and snow drag races. After a long day of riding our trails, why wouldn't you want to stay a while longer?!

Special Announcements

NOISE AND SAFETY CONTROL

Please be sure to follow the rules and regulations of the trails. Landowner complaints and loud exhausts on sleds can ruin riding for everyone! Please be sure to be respectful of all trails and laws - We need mutual respect with our landowners in order to keep building up our trail system! Don’t let speeding or loud sleds be the reason EVERYONE loses the trail. One piece of a landowner’s property could be the vital piece that connects to major trail systems

Respect Laws and Landowners
