What is an IMBA Ride Center?
The Ride Center designation recognizes large-scale mountain bike trail systems and destinations that offer something for every rider. From backcountry adventures to lift-served gravity trails, and from expert-only to family-friendly, you’ll encounter the best the sport has to offer.
The Aspen Snowmass / Roaring Fork Valley IMBA Ride Center achieved the Gold Level award in January 2020 after a massive effort from our staff, partners and the community!
Awardees must have key aspects that make for an amazing mountain biking destination like a variety of trail types, overall trail mileage, quality of trail experiences, destination best practices, and local services.
With over 400 miles of high-quality singletrack to explore, the Roaring Fork Valley provides an incredible breadth of experiences for both local and visiting riders seeking beauty and exhilaration. Our deepest appreciation goes to the countless volunteers and professionals who’ve created and sustained the trails that are the basis for this Gold Level Ride Center designation.
Our Shared Public Lands make this Ride Center Possible!
While we’re fortunate to have an incredible landscape canvas for our trail system, we couldn’t have achieved this Gold Level status without the professionalism and hard work of our public land managers:
- White River National Forest
- Bureau of Land Management, Colorado River Valley Field Office
- Pitkin County Open Space & Trails
- Town of Snowmass Village, Parks & Trails
- City of Aspen Parks, Open Space & Trails
- City of Glenwood Springs, Parks & Trails
Also, please visit our chamber partner websites for all sorts of great information about local lodging, camping, restaurants, cultural events, and loads of non-trail recreation activities.
