Santa Fe is a Top Mountain Biking Destination

With miles of singletrack trails, it is no wonder that Santa Fe is one of the top ten mountain biking destinations in North America. The city's paths draw cyclists from near and far, who enjoy everything from easy rides to brutal climbs. When you are ready for some pedaling fun, the best mountain biking trails near our Santa Fe apartments include:

Winsor Trail 

Called a gem of the National Park System, the Winsor Trail offers one of the country's most epic uphill climbs. It leads riders through pine forests and alpine meadows before ending in a rocky, desert-like setting. Cyclists encounter stream crossings and other obstacles. The most challenging sections are between the ski area and where Winsor intersects with Pacheco Canyon Road. 

Dale Ball Trail System

Don't miss an adventure along the Dale Ball Trail System. A Santa Fe classic, it features miles of riding fun. Along the way, you will discover the Dale Ball North Loop and Dale Ball Central Loop. DB North boasts faster trails with fewer technical areas, while DB Central challenges riders with fun rocky sections.

Galisteo Basin Preserve Mountain Bike Trail

Made up of singletrack and old ranch roads, the Galisteo Basin Preserve Mountain Bike Trails welcome everyone from cyclists to horseback riders. They traverse sandstone ridge lines and savannah grasslands, and cyclists can enjoy short adventures or all-day excursions. Remember to bring plenty of water and sunscreen. 

Another way to spend time outdoors is to enjoy a day fly fishing. You can fish at places like the Santa Fe National Forest. To gain easy access to all of these attractions near Olympus Rodeo, please contact us. Our leasing team will set you up with a tour of our Santa Fe apartments.
