More on Winter Park Mountain Bike and Downhill Mountain Biking Events. Winter Park Colorado has been known as Mountain Bike Capital USA for a number of years now but over the past few years, the bike scene here has really erupted. With the emergence of downhill biking a number of years ago, Winter Park Resort burst onto the scene when it created Trestle Bike Park, named one of the fastest growing bike parks in North America. The downhill mountain bike park boasts 40 miles of trail riding with 3 lifts. Riders will enjoy a variety of trail riding from jumps and features to smooth terrain for fast speeds. Trails are divided into categories beginning with easiest to most difficult.
Winter Park Resort has developed a creative way to get people into the sport of downhill mountain biking from having bike guides show you around the trail system, a bike school to learn how to ride downhill bikes and mountain bike camps. In addition a few events one designed just for women is called, “Women’s Wednesdays” which features a 2 for 1 Kona Minxi Downhill Mountain Bike Package. For more information call: 970-726-1675.
