Mountain Biking in Taos, New Mexico
62% of land in Taos County New Mexico is public land. That means that 62% of the land is either National Forest or Bureau of land Management. That's a lot of open space and there are some wonderful spots to mountain bike. The South Boundary Trail includes miles and miles of single track riding and some stupendous views. The trail at the Gorge Bridge is a less challenging trail which skirts the Rio Grande Gorge. There are many bike trails in the Taos Ski Valley area that provide great off road options. If you want a paved climb, try the 9 mile road up to the base at TSV. It is a big climb and will get your heart pumping. The ride down is a blast.
