The Bar-H Ranch, on the outskirts of Saint Jo, Texas, has been in the Hutson family as a working cattle ranch for over 100 years. Now, as The Breaks at Bar-H Mountain Bike Ranch, the Hutsons have created a true mountain biker's heaven with two things in mind - the best singletrack in Texas and a singular trails system designed to satisfy riders of all abilities.

The Breaks currently has over 25 miles of trails on 1100 acres of rugged terrain located in the Cross-Timbers Region inside the southern rim of the Red River Valley. New trails are always being constructed to continuously challenge riders of all levels. The initial trail system at The Breaks was developed by Arrowhead Trails, Inc., a premiere trail construction company that specializes in the design and construction of
mountain biking trails. This translates into unparalleled mountain biking opportunities for all riding abilities. Plus our full facilities include hot showers, restrooms, picnic tables, grill/fire rings, primitive tent camping, group camping, trailer hook-ups and bike wash.

We also guarantee some real Texas hospitality and genuine country solitude. Get away from the crowds and the traffic, leave those big-city-blues behind, and come visit us at The Breaks. Whether you're coming up for the day with your hard-core buddies or camping and riding with the kids, you’ll be treated like a member of the family. The Breaks is easy to find, located just eighty miles north of Dallas/Fort Worth. On the way to the Bar-H Ranch entrance pull over at our scenic overlook on County Road 433 for a spectacular, panoramic view of the Bar-H and the Red River Valley.

The Breaks at Bar-H is open all year except during deer hunting season (11/3 - 1/6/08). We may have temporary closures after heavy rains but you can always call our hotline or check the trail conditions page for current trails and weather status.
