Trails

Gooseberry Mesa has mountain biking trails for everyone. Whether you like the technical slickrock or you are less aggressive and want to hone your skills, head on up to Gooseberry Mesa. Situated on a mesa 1500 feet above the Hurricane Valley, the temperatures are cooler and the scenery is absolutely amazing. The Gooseberry Mesa singletrack trails were designed and built by mountain bikers and are for non-motorized use only.

Gooseberry Mesa is bisected by a doubletrack called the White Trail that serves as an access trail, a beginners trail, and makes for a quick trip back to your vehicle so you can refuel and head out again.

The South Rim of Gooseberry Mesa is famous for its singletrack slickrock. The South Rim is the more technical area of Gooseberry. The moves come at you fast and furious and are interspersed with amazing views of the Hurricane Valley and Zion national Park. Hidden Canyon is a "Must Ride" singletrack from the South Rim to the White Trail.

The North Rim is less technical, but still has moves to challenge the best. The North Rim is also home to the Practice Loop, for those looking to hone their skills before heading out onto the more challenging sections of trail. The Windmill Trail is a great singletrack along the rim. From the end of the Windmill is a 10.5 mile singletrack that connects to the Grafton Mesa descent into the old ghost town of Grafton.

While not as famous as Gooseberry Mesa, Little Creek offer some of the best mountain biking ever. Little Creek is a mixture of slickrock and singletrack through some of the most amazing terrain you have ever seen. There is wide open, flowy singletrack and technical moves to blow the mind.

The Little Creek Trail system is in the process of being dedicated and developed, so as yet there are few trail markers and fewer maps (none accurate). Little Creek is a delicate area with a huge number of archeoligical sites so is extremely important to respect the singletrack and stay on the trail. It is highly reccomended that you ride with somebody who has been there before. If you want to go out and explore on your own, stop by Over the Edge Sports on your way out and we can draw in some trails on your map and give you some landmarks to help you navigate.

Over the Edge does alot of Shop Rides to Little Creek to help people learn the trails and respect the area.

This amazing group of trails can be ridden individually or you can put together a 21 mile loop of singletrack the Bike Magazine calls some of the best in the U.S.in 2009.

The J.E.M. Trail is properly named - what a jem it is! It can be fast and furious, weaving thru the desert, jumping like a rabbit for the advanced rider. It is also great for the Novice who can take their time on a flowy, smooth, mellow trail tread.

The Hurricane Rim is just that - high above the Virgin River along the rim, without going over the edge. Great views, rocky enough in places to challange your skills. This trail weaves in and out, up and down along the edge with a good climb out and a fast descent down to the trail head on Highway 59.

Goulds Rim has some rim riding on the edge, a little bit of rock. This trail also weaves in and out, up and down, but no steep climbs.

You can link these trails together in many different ways. Come in and see us and we will put together the one that fits your group best.
