3 Great Places for Mountain Biking in Colorado

For generations, outdoor enthusiasts have flocked to the Centennial State to enjoy an impressive swath of recreational activities. With its iconic alpine backdrops, awe-inspiring vistas, and relatively centralized location, mountain biking in Colorado offers a stimulating and immersive experience that deserves the attention of discerning travelers looking for their next big adventure. Of course, unless you’re planning an extreme excursion with nothing but your backpack, tent, and bike, you’ll need a comforting place to call home while resting your bones after each demanding outing. Thankfully, Effortless Stay has a great assortment of vacation rentals near some of Colorado’s best mountain bike trails.

Best Mountain Biking near Denver, Colorado

One of the most appealing aspects of the “Mile-High City” is its seemingly perfect balance between the great outdoors and a bustling city. The Denver metro area has one of the highest concentrations of bike trails in the country. Teeming with old-growth ponderosa stands, historical landmarks, and rugged outcrops, Denver may be one of the most mountain bike-friendly cities with over 700,000 residents. Red Rocks / Dakota Ridge Trail is a popular loop with technical rocks and a reasonably steep hog’s back.

Best Mountain Biking near Winter Park and Fraser, Colorado

Grand County is well-known in Colorado for its many adventurous opportunities, and mountain biking is no exception! The Fraser River Trail is ideal for beginners, families, and children, while Idlewild Trail System presents more of a challenge but isn’t too difficult for intermediate riders. Finally, Trestle Bike Park has over 40 miles of trails catering to every skill level and is a must-stop for anyone staying in Fraser or Winter Park.

Best Mountain Biking near Breckenridge, Colorado

With approximately 800 miles of tracks, we’re surprised Breckenridge isn’t more well-known for its copious mountain biking opportunities. Wellington Bike Park is open to the public at no charge. With around 5 acres and easily accessible from town, Wellington is more of a training center than a trail system. The skills area has several jump features as well as an enormous pump track. Much like Trestle Bike Park in Grand County, Wellington is another must-see facility. After honing your skills at the park, take them to the next level by jumping on the Peaks Trail for gorgeous panoramic views and an adrenaline-pumping descent.

Colorado Vacation Rentals Offer Free Lodging in Colorado

Effortless Rental Group has partnered with Premier Vacation Rentals and a select network of property managers to offer lodging for people who have been adversely affected by the pandemic. Participants will qualify on a case-by-case basis and undergo a screening process including background checks.

Chris Bettin, founder and CEO of Premier Vacation Rentals said this in the Denver Post late last week…

“Though we operate as competitors in a normal business environment, this crisis presents a unique opportunity for us to unite around a common cause and support individuals in our communities who are in need of lodging during this crisis,” Bettin said. “It’s extremely rewarding to do this right now.”

All in all, the network of PM’s boasts approximately 500 properties across multiple markets. More property management companies are expected to join in on the program in the coming months.

Additionally, with travel activity declining in recent months, prices are being drastically reduced to guests that may not qualify. So now may actually be a great time to book & save money on a future trip.
