Best Mountain Biking in Utah (In our opinion). Lifts open in the summer months, also great idea to run a shuttle with friends before the summer months hit and it gets busy.

This is a long, scenic bike ride (26 miles) through Big Cottonwood Canyon, Park City, and Millcreek UT. Not for the faint of heart but intermediate to expert bikers would enjoy. Shuttle required, and is only bike-friendly on even days of the week.
