Hi all, Northern Californian here.

I am actually going to Amesterdam for work near Amsterdam centraal area. (09/30-10/07)

I've started searching for some mountain biking rentals but not that easy to find.

Any recommendations? Of course, I'd love to ride with the locals!

mtbr project shows Hoge Vuursche to be pretty fun. https://www.mtbproject.com/trail/7040472/hoge-vuursche

Thanks ducatif1!

I found some videos of both trail systems. Hoge Vuursche looks more fun and has rolling hills (Although, I would love to have trails with rocks, roots and drops). Any bike shop you recommend for bike rental there?

Sorry ..can not answer your question for Hoog Vuursche. .
For Schoorl you got two bike shops (goole-search) with rental mtb's. One got Merida Big Nine 500 for rent and for the other I can not seee what bikes they have for renting.

I recently moved to Leiden and have been to Noordwijk's track. The trail is fun but I would like to ride something with more rocks and ruts, and less XC. Do you have any suggestions?

 

[ducatif1]

Overall in the Netherlands the tracks are XC tracks.. Welkom op deze website MTBroutes.nl for almost all the XC tracks in the Netherlands.
Some tracks have rockgardens like in Zoetermeer or Bergschenhoek.

Hi, I would have a look at the previousely mentioned Schoorl, Utrechtse Heuvelrug or tracks around Apeldoorn (Hoge Veluwe). In you vincinity you that would be my top picks. I asume that Instead of ruts you mean roots. No even remotely natural rock gardens in NL though: you should go to Winterberg (DE) or the Ardens (BE) for that.
