Royal Gorge Ranch & Resort
Cañon City, CO
Come join us at Royal Gorge Park in Cañon City and play on the rolling climbs and descents through the park as you take in the views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and the Arkansas River! These trails offer plenty of rocks to play on mixed with flowy single track to make it a speedy day taking on either one or two loops. Grab a friend and make it a relay!
All rides will start and finish at the Royal Gorge Ranch & Resort with nearby amazing amenities & other activities including whitewater rafting on the Arkansas River & more.
*Distances may vary slightly each year due to permitting.
