Kolob Terrace Scenic Downhill Ride
  Back 
The views on this ride are nothing less than stunning. Driving to the heights of Zion National Park, we set ourselves up for a downhill roller coaster ride through some of the least-visited and most-overlooked scenic areas of Zion. If you are looking for a quiet, scenic, active way to see the best of Zion in a short visit, consider joining us for this amazing ride through the heart of this unique and breathtaking country.

PREREQUISITES
»- Groups of 2 or more - Must know how to ride a bike - Age 10 and up recommended
CURRICULUM
»At various points along our downhill cruise, we stop to enjoy the views and discuss unique elements of Zion's alpine desert ecology and cultural history. Opportunities for photography, natural history, and plant identification abound.
EXPERIENCE
»Starting at the high desert oasis of Kolob Reservoir, we jump on our bikes and descend into the astounding terraces of Zion's midsection. We follow the paved road for 25 miles, rolling first through aspen and conifer forests, then past brilliant white slickrock peaks, and finally into redrock canyon country, tracing North Creek to the town of Virgin, UT. Along the way, our mountain-top views extend far into the horizon, providing fantastic panoramas of the mesas, canyons, and mountains surrounding us. The ride is 80% downhill, 10% flat, and 10% uphill, including a few steep descents and some fun, twisting turns.
