Mountain Bike the Pipe Dream Trail in Moab

There are multiple trailheads to access the Pipe Dream trail in Moab. This time we chose to start at the Jackson Street parking area and rode the pipeline trail south for approximately 3-miles. This section of trail is a 2-track road that follows, you guessed it, the gas pipeline. It climbs around 730 feet with a punchy climb within the first 1/4 mile. At the Hidden Valley Trailhead, you'll tu...

The rock domes and slickrock around the campsites provide fun for young and old to scramble on, or simply enjoy the sunrise or sunset. Located just outside of the town of Moab Utah is the Sand Flats Recreation Area.

The trail is easy to follow despite the lack of actual "trail" thanks to a series of white dashed lines winding through the lands...

Power Dam

This is a great little swimming hole spot in Moab. A lot of locals will call it The Power Dam. It's just a short easy 1.5-mile hike up the canyon to a natural swimming pool where you can swim and hang out. This is a perfect little spot to check out in Moab while visiting the great national parks. Although cliff jumping may look appealing, the water is pretty shallow, so stay safe and avoid ju...

Mountain Bike Portal Trail

If you are looking to ride one of Moab's famed mountain bike trails, then look no further than the Portal Trail.
