Our White Rim Trail 5-day Super Special MTB/Hike Tour in Canyonlands National Park offers an extra relaxed pace for those who have the time, and most importantly want to maximize their experience in the Park. Enjoy 4 nights and 4 mornings in the backcountry, more time each day to explore side attractions. Exercise your freedom to pause, see more, inspire your curiosity, and maximize your adventure.
Suitable for adventurers in good physical condition and able to ride or hike for 3-5 hours a day, this trip allows you more time to indulge in this enormously scenic national treasure. We'll travel by bike and foot through canyons with towering sandstone cliffs and ancient layers of rock containing fossils and petrified wood to those distant "places" in the landscape where you'll feel the remoteness of the Classic Wild West!
This trip is yours for riding, hiking slot canyons, viewing ancient ruins, taking a dip in the river [caution: no lifeguard on duty], sleeping out under the stars or just kicking back at camp, expressing your creativity, and basking in the spectacular views. Our meals are delicious, and our guides are seasoned experts who will help you make this the best week of riding you’ve ever had!
