Description

The Ute Trail is a 1.5-mile loop singletrack along the eastern side of the Garden of the Gods park.

From Gateway Road, the lollipop loop swings either clockwise or counterclockwise. The trail is easy singletrack with minimal elevation change. It winds between scrub oak trees and offers views of the eastern side of the park.

Multiple connector trails such as Niobrara Trail and Chambers Trail can be ridden in various loops for variety.
