Moab Mountain Bike Trail: Slickrock

The famous Slickrock trail (click tab below) is technically strenuous and is considered a highly aerobic trail. This is a good challenge for avid Moab mountain bikers, but if you are not very good at mountain biking, you too can ride this trail.  You will just have to walk you bike past some difficult sections.

First developed by motorcyclists in the 1960's, this trail has been overtaken by mountain bikers and is arguably the most famous trail in the world.  It attracts over 100, 000 visitors annually.

Moab Mountain Bike Trail - Amasa Back

Amasa Back trail (click tab above) finishes with an amazing view of the Colorado river.  The amazing part is that you will be looking down from the top of a 1000 foot cliff.  This trail is suitable for beginner, intermediate, and advanced riders, but beginner riders will need to walk their bikes past some of the difficult sections. 

Once you get past the initial sand, rocks, and loose gravel, the trail is practically all slickrock (good riding!).  You will love the decent on the way back.  Give Moab UT mountain biking a try!
