Bike Descents

If you can pull a brake, you can ride some of Colorado’s best and most thrilling bike descents, with shuttle service, and full-day or half-day options available. In Boulder, take a ride on the ultra-classic Switzerland Trail, which follows an old gold mining railroad grade across a historic trail, which starts at top of Boulder Canyon and gently makes its way into downtown Boulder, flanked by a breathtaking panorama of the Front Range and the Indian Peaks Wilderness. In Rocky Mountain National Park, ride from the top of Trail Ridge Road, the only paved road in the United States that rises above 12,000-feet. Start at the Alpine Visitors Center and ride down between elk, moose, deer, and bear, into Estes Park, with some of the most unforgettable views in North America.
