  • Ron 

Registration is now open for the Fourth Güdrun Bike Festival to be held November 11 – 13 at Hot Springs’ internationally acclaimed Northwoods Trail System.

Early bird registration, which continues until June 30 at 4 p.m., also automatically enters the first 200 entries in a drawing for the EPIC Bike Hot Springs Vacation Package, which includes a whole raft of free stuff including a free stay at The Hotel Hot Springs.

Traci Berry, Trails Coordinator for Visit Hot Springs, said, “We are crazy stoked for Güdrun – Northwoods MTB Festival 2022.”

“This will be our fourth year of the festival, which has doubled in participation since the inaugural year,” she said. “Plus, we will be celebrating the 30th Anniversary of the Attila the Hun XC (cross country) Race, the final race of the Arkansas Mountain Bike Championship Series and one of the longest running XC mountain bike races in the state.”

The 2022 festival will include:

  • Spa City Running and Riding Expo
  • Güdrun Slow Roll Fun Ride
  • Güdrun Mini-Enduro
  • Güdrun Full Enduro
  • Güdrun Waffles & Coffee Time Trial
  • Güdrun Jump Jam
  • Güdrun Dual Slalom
  • Attila the Hun XC Race

Winners of the 2022 EPIC Bike Hot Springs Vacation Package will receive:

  • Two nights’ stay at The Hotel Hot Springs
  •  Two passes to the thermal water pools at Quapaw Baths and Spa LLC (ages 14 and up)
  • Two day passes to Garvan Woodland Gardens
  • Two tickets to The Gangster Museum of America
  • Two passes to Mid-America Science Museum
  • Gift card from Superior Bathhouse Brewery
  • Gift card from Parkside Cycle
  • Gift card from Spa City Cycling
  • Red Light Roastery Coffee House merchandise
  • TACO (Trail Advocacy Coalition of the Ouachitas) merchandise
  • Northwoods Trails merchandise

“The more events you enter, the more chances you will have to win the vacation package,” Berry said. “Meaning, for example, if you register for the Slow Roll, Enduro, Jump Jam and Dual Slalom, your name goes in the hat four times, which ups your chances of winning a super dope Bike Hot Springs Vacation package.”

Also, Berry said, Küat, a nationally known manufacturer of racks for biking and other sports, has joined Güdrun 2022 as a sponsor and will be providing a Transfer v2 hitch mount bike rack to give away. All registrants will be entered into a drawing with the opportunity for more entries. She said the Küat drawing is separate from the Vacation Package drawing.
