Description

This is the beginner outer loop in the Dakota Springs trail system. It features a nice, steady climb to the top, then a cut across the top through cool slickrock sections. On the second half of the trail, riders will descend through another slickrock shelf onto a flowy stretch that takes you back to the trailhead. Enjoy the view of the South San Juan Range at the top of the loop.

Note: All trails in Dakota Springs are directional, so ride counterclockwise.
