Mountain Biking Lovell Gulch

Loop is relatively short, but you will spend the majority of your time climbing steadily from 8500 ft to just over 9200 ft. The trail is very well marked, when you get to the sign where the loop starts (< 1 mile in), keep right to avoid some super steep uphill. The trail is mostly singletrack (not too technical with the exception of some rooty parts) until you get to the top. Here, take a left at the gate where the trail changes to doubletrack. Be prepared for some screaming downhill that can be rocky or have loose gravel in sections. Before you know it, you'll be crossing the creek and back where the loop started. Be sure to stop and smell the wildflowers along the way! You can also go camping nearby at Meadow Ridge.

Getting there
From Colorado Springs, take I-25 and Hwy 24 West towards Woodland Park. Once in Woodland Park, turn right at the McDonalds onto Baldwin Rd. Head straight through several stop signs for about 2 miles. There will be a sign to turn left into the parking lot for the Lovell Gulch Trailhead, which is adjacent to an animal shelter.
