MOUNTAIN BIKING: Westwater Mesa / Overlook

← UT DUCHESNE RIVER RANDLETT UT Single Tracks →

Description

Scenic trails that mostly follow the Colorado River canyon rim. Singletrack is used by motorcycles, but is surprisingly solid. There are a few junctions along the way that can be confusing, but it you stay along the rim until the back side of the lollipop then you should be fine. However, I recommend getting the regional guidebook to keep you straight. This trail can connect with the Western Rim trail via the Western Rim Connector (see guidebook). A good, solid, scenic ride with mileage and some technical areas.

Directions

Take I-70 west from Fruita to Westwater exit (Exit 225). Head south up dirt road. Stay right at 0.5 miles and then left at 1.1 miles and then right again at 1.3 miles. There is a campground at 2 miles, and it is the starting point.
