The 2017 mountain bike riding season is cranking! Last year’s new trails – Seven Star in Snowmass and the Glassier Trail in the Mid-Valley – now open!
Seasonal closures give our wildlife in the area the space they need during some of the hardest and most important times of year. The Snowmass Village Animal Services Department enforces trail closures enacted to protect sensitive wildlife habitats that surround our Village. It is unlawful of any persons to use by any means the following trails during wildlife sensitive periods.
More trails will be opening June 21.
