Canyonlands Mountain Bike Tour on the White Rim Trail

Canyonlands Mountain Bike Tour on the White Rim Trail

Overview

A must in any biker’s rites of passage is riding the White Rim Trail mountain bike tour in Canyonlands National Park. Riding on a sandstone bench through a land called “Island in the Sky” you will pass Mussleman Arch, Monument Basin, Turks head, Candlestick Tower, and White Crack, a perch 1000 feet above the confluence of the Green and Colorado rivers in the center of Canyonlands… some believe the center of the universe. If you only had time for one Moab area bike trip in your life, the White Rim Trail mountain biking tour in Canyonlands should be the one. The White Rim Trail trail mountain bike trip can also be combined with the Colorado River through Cataract Canyon for the ultimate multi-sport adventure vacation.

Important to note: camping gear is not included, but is available to rent for between $40 - $65.

What an amazing experience - a private friends and family 3 day ride around the White Rim Trail. Holiday River Expeditions and guides Susan and Colin were fantastic! A trip and adventure I will never forget.

Four friends and I had a fantastic 4 day White Rim tour with Magpie Cycling. We went the second week of September and had very nice weather. The hottest days were in the low 90s F with very low humidity, and the coolest nights were low 50s with some dew. This is not a rails-to-trails experience. There are 1000 foot climbs and descents. I’d put myself at the top of the 25th percentile of regular Peloton stationary bikers, and I had to walk my bike up the steepest slopes and take a good hour of recovery at the end of the tough days’ ride. That said by day 2 we were trying for “air” when we found a nice jump on a downhill run even though we were mountain bike neophytes, and every picture from the trip shows ear-to-ear smiles on everyone. Mike Adler (a.k.a. John Wesley Powell II) & Mike Rundle (a.k.a. the Good Samaritan) were our AWESOME guides. We were taught about the geology, ecology, and history in ways that demonstrated a real understanding and love of Canyonlands, and respect for the bad-ass explorers that brought it to the nation’s attention. Two of our party are vegetarians, and the Vegetarian / Pescatarian food they served up was praised by all. They led us on some excellent side excursions. Mike Rundle also demonstrated the kind of people they are when he helped a couple in a broken down Jeep get back to cell phone service where they could call for assistance. A couple of side notes that contradict what you find on their web site: they supplied camp chairs, bike tools, and occasional recharges of small devices for those who forgot their battery packs. I highly recommend the trip and the outfit, and I am looking forward to my next trip with Magpie, Adler, and Rundle.

Rachel and Justin were great guides and showed wonderful attitudes with the younger riders in our group (well experienced mountain biking 14 year olds), the older teens, and with us older kids (late 40's to late 50's). They provide much latitude and accommodations to our group, diversions as needed, solid pacing and encouragement, and of course great meals. All of which added to the stunning scenery of CanyonLands, which can't be touched by any trite superlatives I can use here. The desert solitude, even with our sometimes delightfully noisey group, is something everyone should experience. We are small, us humans, yet we leave a large footprint. Holiday River made it all very accessible.
