“A traditional singletrack nice break from slickrock after a long day on the other Gooseberry trails”

— Kevin Christopherson
GPX File — Driving Directions

Overview

Description

Going clockwise the Windmill Trail starts by branching off the Bowls and Ledges trail. It ends at a dirt road. You can ride it as an out and back, or complete the loop on one of the double tracks. It is not slickrock. It's a more traditional singletrack. There are still a few technical sections, but It's a nice way to end a ride after you've been worked by Gooseberry. As a bonus, there are spectacular vistas of Zion National Park across the Virgin River valley.
