Salida Gulch Trail Mountain Biking

One of the shorter trails on our list, Salida Gulch is a great pick if you’re looking to get a small challenge within 4.2 miles. The loop it’s made of is a soft and steady uphill incline with rewarding views to appreciate, and then a fast and breezy descent back to the trailhead.

There’s plenty to see along the way even before you reach the top. A more open forest experience awaits all around the singletrack trail, but there’s still plenty of shade on hot summer days. If you keep your eyes open, you’ll spot a rock wallwith many petroglyphs to stop and appreciate before you continue on your ride.
