meet the people who advocate for your trails

we are Pisgah Area SORBA 

OUR MISSION

Pisgah Area SORBA is dedicated to preserving mountain biking opportunities by maintaining and improving trail systems in the Pisgah Ranger District and surrounding region.


Our mission is accomplished through volunteer opportunities, educational resources focused on environmental stewardship, and advocacy for mountain biking access in order to preserve our natural resources for future outdoor recreation. While our organization is focused on trails which offer mountain biking opportunities, our adopted trails are multi-use, meaning our improvements benefit all trail users. Currently, Pisgah Area SORBA has adopted over 100 miles of trails within the Pisgah Ranger District and the surrounding region.

Pisgah Area SORBA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and a chapter of the Southern Off-Road Bicycle Association (SORBA), the Southeast regional division of IMBA.
