Biking

Montrose is cycling heaven. Whether you’re looking for a challenging climb on a road bike, some sweet singletrack for your mountain bike or just a leisurely cruise along quiet country roads, you’ll find it here.

For one of the most challenging and scenic rides in Colorado, try the ride to Black Canyon National Park on Highways 50 and 347. The county road system through the Uncompahgre Valley also offers a variety of rides. Montrose has a nice network of paved bike paths and mountain bike trails. Last but not least, Gunnison Gorge National Conservation Area and the Uncompahgre Plateau also have numerous mountain bike trails.
