Mountain BIking in Steamboat.....Fun for the whole family.

View from Emerald Mountain to the Steamboat ski area!

The area surrounding Steamboat Springs is loaded with great mountain biking trails. If you are from out of town, Mt. Werner has fun and exciting trails for all abilities. The Torian Plum is a great starting point for the trails on this local ski hill! If you would like instruction, be sure to sign up for a mountain biking clinic with a local pro. Rent a bike and all of your gear from any of the shops in town or at the base of the mountain and they will probably give you some pointers about where to go. There are single tracks, two tracks and dirt roads to choose from. It’s even possible to load your bike up the gondola and enjoy the ride down without the pain of the uphill. Some of our favorite trails include Pete’s Wicked Trail, Creekside, Valley View and Zig Zag. Another great place to ride straight from downtown Steamboat Springs is Emerald mountian. Head up Howelsen Hill and beyond towards the top of Emerald Mountain, where you have several awesome trails to choose from. In another direction, check out Strawberry Park, Copper Ridge, Hot Springs Loop, or Mad Creek. These trails are all interconnected.
