5의 사파이어 산맥가지 명소 & 주요 장소

Stretching for more than 50 miles between Hamilton and Missoula, the paved Bitterroot Trail offers a flat, traffic-free corridor through the heart of the valley. Riders enjoy wide-open views of the Bitterroot Mountains to the west and the Sapphire Range to the east, with small towns, cafes, and services dotted along the way. As the route leads into Missoula, the trail provides a welcoming and scenic approach; heading south, it eases you gently back into rural landscapes.

Miller Creek Road can be accessed from town. It starts off as a paved road, but as you climb further and further from the city, the road turns to dirt. You can go out as far as you like, and then it's a fast downhill all the way back to Missoula.

This trail is the access route to Mount Dean Stone Preserve, the new most recent recreation area of Missoula.

Deer Creek Sneak is labeled as a "Green" mountain biking trail, but it is popular for gravel bikes and bike touring as well. The trail climbs steadily from Deer Creek Road to the intersection with the Pattee Canyon mountain biking trail system. This can be a fun, fast downhill trail to ride.

Mount Dean Stone is one of Missoula's nature highlight. Recently, the Mount Dean Stone Preserve opened around 6 miles of new motorised trails for hikers, horse-riders, and bikers.
