About Durango Mountain Bike Tours
Durango Mountain Bike Tours is a dedicated guiding company that takes riders into the best singletrack terrain surrounding Durango and the San Juan Mountains. Founded by competitive mountain bikers who fell in love with the area's trail density, the company focuses exclusively on guided riding experiences — from mellow half-day introductions on the accessible Horse Gulch network to full-day epics on the Colorado Trail and Kennebec Pass. They know every root, rock, and switchback within a 50-mile radius of town.
Tour options cover a wide range of abilities and ambitions. Beginner tours stick to smooth, flowy trails in the Horse Gulch and Dalla Mountain Park systems, while intermediate riders can tackle the iconic Hermosa Creek Trail or the ridge-running Dry Fork Loop. Advanced and expert packages venture into high-alpine terrain above 11,000 feet, including shuttle-assisted descents and multi-day bikepacking routes along the Colorado Trail. All tours include a high-end full-suspension rental bike, helmet, hydration pack, snacks, and transportation to the trailhead.
The guides are the real draw here — all are experienced racers or long-time Durango locals who can read a rider's ability within the first few minutes and adjust the route accordingly. Group sizes max out at six riders per guide, ensuring personalized attention on technical sections. For mountain bikers visiting Durango who want to skip the trail-finding guesswork and ride the best lines from day one, this is the most efficient way to experience the area.
