Utah Mountain Biking Trips

Utah’s sweeping, red-rock vistas and exquisite canyons have become a mecca for mountain bikers. Holiday’s Utah mountain bike trips traverse endless dirt roads and world-famous trail systems. Pedal from canyon rim to river bottom and from mountain passes to creek crossings, through some of the West’s most iconic landscapes.

Ride Utah’s classic multi-day mountain bike trip, the White Rim Trail in Canyonlands National Park. Explore the Maze District of Canyonlands. Or book a trip in the San Rafael Swell and find out why it’s the locals’ favorite.

Our trips are fully supported and include expert guides, scrumptious meals, and vehicle support for your gear. Bring your own bike or rent from our fleet of full-suspension Specialized mountain bikes. Charter trips are available for groups wanting a more customizable experience.

Holiday is an authorized concessioner of Canyonlands National Park.  Additionally, (& more importantly) southern Utah’s canyon country was home to Indigenous people and cultures long before our modern society existed. Out of respect for these people, Holiday wishes to acknowledge that the areas in which we operate our mountain bike trips are the traditional homelands of the Pueblos and the Núu-agha-tʉvʉ-pʉ̱ (Ute) people.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to bring my own bicycle?

Holiday has a rental fleet of full-suspension Specialized mountain bikes. Anyone is able to rent one for their trip for $260. 

If you own a bicycle that you would like to bring, you are more than welcome to! Before each trip, our guides perform pre-trip inspections on all personal bicycles. They are ensuring that each bike is fit for a multi-day expedition. Guests with bikes that fail our inspection will be asked to rent a Holiday bike.

Can anyone go on a biking trip? Do I need to have previous experience?

These trips entail riding at least 4-5 hours each day, depending on the trip and route. We recommend participants ride their bikes regularly leading up to their trip. Even 1-2 hours a week will go a long way.
