FAQs: Mountain Biking in United States

What should I know about Mountain Biking United States?

Every state, and most U.S. territories as well offer bountiful mountain biking opportunities.

Explore the woods near Burlignton and pedal through the Green Mountains for a verdant introduction to the sport. If you find yourself in the middle of the country, head to Michigan and take in the stunning sleeping bear dunes.

Avoid the crowds in Tahoe and Aspen and head to other amazing biking routes in California and Colorado. California’s central coast offers plenty of amazing rides for beginners and advanced mountain bikers. Head to the redwoods or plunge down narrow coastal runs in Santa Cruz.

In Colorado, ride to Gunnisson canyon and national park for a change of scenery.

Finally, if you’ve got the time, check out Moab. You won’t find much better cycling on earth, though sometimes it feels like you aren’t even here. Feldspar in the rocks, glows reddish-pink in the evening, givig your ride a distinctly martian feel.

Why should I choose United States for my Mountain Biking adventure?

Stunning scenery

Regardless of where you head in the U.S., expect amazing scenery. From the redwood forests in California to the magnificent maples of Vermont and everything in between! Enjoy stunning views from up in the mountains or peaceful valleys down in the forest. Bring some extra batteries because regardless of where you head, you’ll want to use that camera.

Amazing variety

The U.S. is the fourth largest country in the world and stretches across a plethora of different landscapes. Explore canyons in Colorado. Watch the leaves turn in Vermont, or speed down seaside cliffs in Big Sur, California. There sure is a lot to do. While you probably can’t fit it all into one trip, it means there’s a lifetime of adventure awaiting you stateside.

Excellent exercise

Mountain biking is a great way to get in a workout while having a blast. Expect strenuous climbs, sustained pedaling and plenty of core control. However, working out was never so scenic. After that exhausting climb, reap the reward of amazing views. No doubt that is better than hitting the treadmill in the gym. Adrenaline-pumping rides downhill exercise your arms and core muscles too. A total workout.
