Ride Summary

This is a great, long intermediate ride with a variety of terrain and scenery. While The Monster Intermediate Loop is a three hour tour for advanced intermediates, lower intermediates will thoroughly enjoy spending the better part of a day on this local mountain biking classic. By the way, the scenery of Snyderville Basin, Round Valley, and Park City is terrific. Slow down just enough to see it!

The Monster “I” bike ride has the full range of variety, from bike paths along streams and through open meadows to twisty turns through sage brush and mountain oak to tight single track through thick aspen groves. There are three climbs of note that will get your heart rate up, but if you take your time they aren’t bad, and the reward is fast cross hill trails. There are switchbacks going uphill and downhill, and a number of rest places with benches for you to sit and catch your breath.
