MOUNTAIN BIKING

Make tracks to Glenwood Springs for plenty of bold, challenging, free-wheeling fat tire fun! Terrain includes everything from dirt roads to singletracks and heart-thumping descents to skill-building topography. As part of the Roaring Fork Valley IMBA Gold Level Ride Center, is a national destination for mountain bikers. New trails include Wulfsohn, Grandstaff, South Canyon and the CMC Spring Valley Trail System. The result is a range of rides, from quick workouts to satisfying treks.

Highlights include the Grandstaff Trail, a fast-paced favorite that is one of Glenwood’s signature rides. Another high-velocity roller is Scout, a singletrack that dips and winds through the trees. For a more relaxed pace in an ultra-pretty setting, choose Babbish Gulch near Sunlight Mountain Resort. Other off-road terrain worth exploring include the Jeanne Golay Trail, Transfer Trail and Dry Park Road.
