Multi – Day Mountain Biking / Camping Adventure
Gravelly Mountains, Southwest Montana


An early morning start will shuttle you through the northwest corner of Yellowstone National Park, past the ghostly trees of Earthquake Lake and into the beautiful Madison Valley. Before heading out, your guide will discus safety and key techniques for a successful mountain biking journey. While you and a guide are mountain biking, a support vehicle will be just a radio call away in case you have any needs or just want to take a break. Snacks and cold beverages are always available. Stop mid-day for a gourmet deli lunch with magnificent 360 degree views. The second half of your day will bring more spectacular riding along the spine of the Gravelly Mountains. In the late afternoon you will arrive at your comfortable campsite. While you relax and take it all in, your guides will be setting up for the night. Dinner and dessert are top notch and so satisfying after a long mountain bike ride. Once the sun has set, enjoy sitting by the campfire and watch for shooting stars. After a good night sleep in the mountain air you’ll wake up to a hot breakfast and cowboy coffee. Refreshed and refueled, it’s time to saddle up once again. You can expect to travel between 15 and 20 miles on you mountain bike each day.
