With trails galore — more than 600 miles of them, in fact — it’s no surprise that Winter Park has been recognized for its superb mountain biking. Along with cross-country singletrack trails, there are also two downhill bike parks that boast everything from beginner routes to double-black-diamond challenges. If you need to rent bikes and gear we would be glad to assist you. Because of the area’s mountain-biking clout, it plays host to various events and races, including the Colorado Freeride Festival in late July.
When the mountains are covered with snow, it doesn’t mean you have to call it quits for the winter. Fat biking is a cold-weather alternative with an ever-growing following. Equipped with a serious pair of tires, these cycles let you pedal over snow-packed trails with relative ease. For a blend of skiing and downhill mountain biking, consider renting a ski bike. Sign up for lessons or a tour and you’ll be navigating the powder in no time.
