Suggested Rides

Wheeler Peak Scenic Drive

This scenic, paved road is a good road ride. Use caution for heavy traffic during the summer and fall.

Strawberry Creek Road

This two-track road into the northeast corner of the park is a pleasant mountain bike ride with a gradual climb.

Snake Creek Road

Partially maintained, the Snake Creek Road follows Snake Creek to end at a primitive campground set in an aspen grove.

Lexington Arch Road

Another road that is partly maintained and partly two-track, the road to Lexington Arch Trailhead climbs up a scenic canyon enroute.
