Mountain Biking Sunset East

Best accessed from the Sunset West area below, you can also choose to park along Weld County Road 6 near the start. There's a nice new sign at the start informing users that this trail was just recently built and to follow all the trail etiquette rules.

Wind uphill from the start to the first junction and keep right to start the ascent up the easier track. Follow this as it makes nice easy switchbacks up to the top of the hill. There's a junction at the top which joins County Road 5, but stick to going straight and you'll start the second half of the loop.

Ascend down from here and enjoy the natural rolling nature that's been built up for plenty of air opportunities! The turns are also nicely banked so feel to open up the speeds as much as you're comfortable with.

The laps are on the shorter side, so feel free to do a few laps to hone your ride!

Q: Why arent the GPS coordinates given for the location?
A: If you want the GPS coordinates, enter any starting address (Denver, CO for example) and click Map It. You can then grab the coordinates from the Google Maps URL.
