Moab Mountain Bike Trails by Skill Level

~ Moab Mountain Bike Trails ~

This is a sample list of Moab area mountain bike trails provided for guests to help evaluate their skills, fitness and interests prior your visit. The trails are sorted by level of skill with a description of basic skills expected of any rider in each category stated at the top of each page. Click on your estimated skill level above. Remember this is just a sample. We don't list newer trails, sensitive, secretive areas or trails where overuse would compromise the experience for our clients.

THEY DON'T CALL IT MOUNTAIN BIKE MECCA FOR NOTHING! In Moab canyon country the forces of nature have created a paradise of undulating rock, convoluted desert to mountainous terrain amid a maze of canyons and mesas. During the 50's and 60's the mining industry probed this entire area in search of uranium and other minerals, creating a network of doubletrack trails across every kind of geological formation known to man. These funky old mining routes take you into very remote country and are more rugged and solitary than what you will find in crowded national parks, at times much more scenic, and certainly more complex and confusing. Some of our newer singletracks have been designed with the stupid tourist in mind, but they can still get you lost if you don't pay attention. As a mountain biker, your first challenge is choosing a trail appropriate to your skills and desires. The next is getting there, then finding your way in relative safety. Most important is avoiding unwanted "adventures." Dreamride is here to help with everything from guides to accommodations. We don't have "Adventure" in our company name for a reason. Adventures are for those who do not know what they are doing and have little hope of keeping the wheels on. We are known for being prepared, knowing the trail and keeping you on trails suitable for your abilities.

"There are trail guides; and then there's the real deal." ~ Bike Magazine

"Mountain Bike America's Moab guide is setting a new standard for guidebooks. Lee Bridgers' first-hand accounts give the reader a sense that they have some behind-the-scenes information about Moab." ~ Brian Fiske, Senior Editor of Mountain Bike Magazine

Advanced routes or extreme slickrock are only advised for very experienced cyclists. The more you ride with us, the more you learn about the environment, the more we learn about you, the more exotic the rides become.

Ride hard ~ rest easy ~ care for life


In 1996 Dreamride originated a unique environmental approach to mountain bike touring in the Mecca of the sport, Moab, Utah. Focusing on the smallest possible groups matched in skills and interests with trails carefully chosen to suit personal abilities and interests, these methods allow guides to share thrills, safety, solitude and a clear environmental conscience.

environment first Don't bust the crust!
Dreamride's mountain bike vacation services began in 1996 after a privately-funded study of the effects of commercial mountain biking on sub-desert ecosystems. Your safety and enjoyment, as well as preservation of fragile ecosystems, are our prime concerns. Your first ride serves as an environmental awareness and skills evaluation to enable our staff to tune the series of daily rides to skills, interests and maturity of the individual, couple or group. Moab slickrock skills clinics Leave Moab a better cyclist.
Dreamride's private skills clinics have been featured on Good Morning America and in Sunset Magazine. We not only give you the skills to handle your bike, but to ride with respect for the environment. You have to be good to travel in places where the ground is alive and extremely fragile. We ride the rock. Let us teach you how to avoid the vegetation.
