- If you can clean the trail of Section 16 Loop, you’ll ready for the big leagues. Located near Colorado Springs, this six-mile round trip is considered challenging-difficult. You can create many loops with this route, so one time is probably not enough.
- Intemann Trail, also near Colorado Springs, is five miles out and back. This technical singletrack is challenging-difficult and great for fine-tuning your handling skills. Don’t be fooled by the short 2.5-miles one way trek, as it can take several hours your first time.
This main trail to hike Pikes Peak, Barr Trail in Colorado Springs is the first leg to the top of the mountain. Starting at the Cog railway, the first 3.5 miles of trail are a solid climb with some technical hard spots, and the next two are a gradual climb to Barr Campground. If you’re screaming legs are up for tackling the rest of this fourteener, lock up your bike at the campground and hike the remaining 7.3 miles to the summit Pikes Peak. Don’t forget to stretch.
