Description: The Blackhawk loop is one of the premier singletrack rides in Utah! Blackhawk loop is composed of couple of different trails, so the name changes from time to time. I would recommend taking along a topo and a guide book;(Mountain Biking Utah, by Greg Bromka is by far the best). This trail is not for the "faint of heart", or those lacking in backcountry biking skills. Blackhawk will test your stamina, bike handling skills, and route finding skills. But the blue ribbon singletrack more then makes up for any hardships endured along the way. With over 14 miles of premier singletrack, who could possibly complain!?

TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail

~16 Miles of sweet, sweet single track. I rode it twice last year and would recommend a healthy amount of water, some good anti-bonk foot, a decent trail map, and a few tools.

Miles of pristine singletrack far removed from the madness of SLC or Moab. Stunning aspens. This is a "be self sufficient" trail as it is remote and receives little traffic. Bring a map and know how to read it as there are unmarked trails that may lead you astray. The elevation profile doesn't look threatening, but the ride will take more out of you than you expect. Highly recommended as it is high on the adventure scale.

Busted my chain, got a flat and still went back and rode it again. This trail can be physically challenging and technically fun.
