South Park
South Park gets my vote for the undisputed best kept mountain biking secret in Colorado. Tucked deep into the Mosquito and Ten Mile Ranges west of US 285 are some of the finest single-track trails and high pass roads to be found anywhere. The Gold Dust Trail, for example, offers a line just as exquisite as the Silver Creek section of the Rainbow Trail.
And, what could be better than finishing the weekend with one more ride? Because thess routes provide easy access to both US 24 (to Colorado Springs) and US 285 (to Denver), they are excellent to hit on the way home.
