Trilha de caminhada

A true classic Boulder mountain bike ride.
Walker Ranch is an iconic mountain bike ride just up the mountains from Boulder. This 7.8-mile loop packs in a whopping 1,600 feet of climbing and descending, thanks to some steep pitches. Riders will have to negotiate a few staircases and mandatory hike-a-bikes along this loop.
In between the tough climbs, riders will enjoy challenging technical riding with boulder-filled rock gardens and fast descents. There are still a few sections of flowy trail interspersed along the loop, but you'll definitely need to be a competent bike handler to ride Walker Ranch comfortably.
The views are also spectacular, with some glimpses of big-mountain views and a section of trail that runs along a raging mountain stream. Walker Ranch truly has something of everything, which has helped it remain such a perennial favorite ride.
