The Oak Motocross Park

The Oak Motocross Park in Coalport, Pennsylvania is a family-owned AMA-sanctioned facility built on three tracks plus a pit bike track, a woods loop, and an endurocross course on the same property. The multi-discipline structure makes the property a true weekend stop where riders can practice three different disciplines without leaving the gate, and the Ecklund family ownership has built the operating culture that supports that variety.

The three main tracks split the property between skill levels. The National track is the property's primary outdoor MX layout, with the kind of obstacle portfolio and pace demands that serve serious regional and amateur national racing. The Intermediate track gives developing riders a step between beginner and full-pace, with layout adjustments that match intermediate skill demands. The Kids track gives the youngest riders an appropriately sized layout, separate from the full-size bikes.

Beyond the three main tracks, the pit bike track gives the increasingly popular pit-bike scene dedicated infrastructure rather than shared use of the main MX layouts. The woods loop wraps the moto facility and provides dual-sport, enduro, and trail riding options for cross-discipline riders. The endurocross course delivers the technical obstacle-based riding format that endurocross racing depends on, and dedicated endurocross infrastructure is rare in regional facilities.

The mulch-mix soil base holds water well. The mulch addition is the kind of soil-management detail that distinguishes serious operators from minimal-prep properties. Most regional facilities run on whatever soil the parcel produced, with watering and grooming as the only surface management. The Oak's mulch-mix base means the surface holds moisture deeper into a session, develops tacky lines more reliably, and produces consistent surface quality across the racing calendar.

The Ecklund family ownership is what supports the operating culture. Family-owned regional facilities tend to produce tighter operating identities and more attention to per-rider experience, and The Oak's structure reflects that.

Food trucks at events and low gate fees are the operational details that signal the property's family-focused identity. Food trucks rather than standard concessions give visiting families variety during racing weekends, and the accessible gate-fee structure keeps the property within reach for families building motocross into a regular weekend activity.

The AMA sanctioning puts The Oak on the formal regional racing calendar. AMA-sanctioned events count for points in the broader district program, and the sanctioning status signals that the property meets the operating standards that the AMA requires.

The Coalport location is in Clearfield County, central Pennsylvania. State College, home of Penn State, is about an hour east. Altoona is roughly 30 minutes south. Pittsburgh is about 90 minutes west. The position pulls riders from across central Pennsylvania, and the I-80 corridor access makes the property within reasonable weekend range of the broader Mid-Atlantic and northeastern Ohio markets.

For anyone searching for motocross tracks in Pennsylvania, MX tracks between State College and Altoona, or a multi-discipline family-owned facility with endurocross and woods riding access, The Oak Motocross Park is the answer with the deepest discipline portfolio in central Pennsylvania.

The name carries a double meaning: the big oak at the gate, and the Ecklund family's Swedish heritage (Eklund translates to oak grove). The family runs three layouts on rolling hill terrain with a dirt-mulch soil mix built for traction: the main national track with real elevation and technical sections, an intermediate track of sweeping corners and confidence-building jumps, and a flat, controlled pit bike and kids loop. Beyond motocross the property adds a short woods loop, an endurocross section with logs and tires, and a grass track, which is why The Oak's Grand Prix events can mix all of it into one course. The park anchors two series as host: the Appalachian Outlaw (AoMX) Motocross Series and the FocusX Central PA Pit Bike Series. Race weekends bring free primitive camping Friday and Saturday nights, concessions from the Twisted Throttle Cafe, and wheelchair-accessible parking. Bikes only, no quads, and always call or text before you haul.
