Slickrock Bike Trail

Sand Flats Road

About :

The bike trail is ideal for use by mountain bikes and motorcycles designed for off-road use. The sandstone provides excellent traction for bikes. The trail is not suitable for three-wheel and four-wheel ATVs as it crosses steep slopes and traverses several narrow sections above drop-offs. White dashes painted on the sandstone mark the route along the trail. Yellow paint and black diamonds are used to indicate caution and intersection areas.

For relatively inexperienced riders, there is a practice loop 2.3 miles long that starts near the top of the first hill about 0.2 mile from the parking area. While characterized as the practice loop, it is a scenic and challenging ride in its own right.

For more experienced riders, the main trail has many steep hills and more sections of rough rock. It requires more advanced riding skills and endurance. There are tough spots that, depending upon your skill and strength, may require walking your bike. The main loop trail, including the side trail to Panorama View Point, is 10.3 miles long and takes most people about 5 hours to ride.
