산타클라라 산맥 최고의 MTB 라이딩 경로

The Mitchell Trail is a very steep, switchbacking trail thats open to hikers and bikers. Although you can ride up it, it is so gravely, steep, and twisty that most use it as a downhill trail. This trail is very popular with hikers headed to the Los Alamos Arch (which you should check out too!) so be aware as you ride down.

The Quemazon Trail is an excellent mountain biking and hiking trail on the westside of Los Alamos. It is typically ridden as a downhill trail accessed from either the Knapp/Los Alamos Canyon Trail or Pipeline Road, but it can be ridden uphill. The Quemazon Trail is a technical trail with stretches of flowy singletrack intermixed with rocks, ledges, and small drops to keep things interesting.

The Technical Perimeter, as the name indicates, is the technical western side of Perimeter Trail system. This trail is mostly comprised of volcanic slickrock. It is not a fast trail, but it's a great trail if you're in the mood for some slower techy riding with great views.

Pipeline Road is a rough, steep dirt road that takes you up to the Pajarito Mountain Ski Area and the Guaje Ridge. The road starts in town on the west side of the Perimeter Trail and is closed to cars and other motor vehicles. Although the climb is hard, the views are excellent.

The Guaje Ridge Trail is a long, open trail that traverses the amazing ridges of several mountain tops (most unnamed) north of Los Alamos. This section of trail stretches from the intersection with the Mitchell Trail and the Upper Guaje Ridge Trail. Although you're only a few miles from town (as the crow flies), this is an incredibly remote feeling trail.

The Kwage Mesa Trail is an easy, flat trail that takes you out into the desert northeast of Los Alamos, New Mexico. Archeologists have found evidence of human activity on the Kwage (KWA-hee) Mesa, which is also known as the Pajarito Plateau, dating back over 10,000 years. This unique trail is a great place to walk through both natural and human history close to town.

The White Rock Canyon Rim Trail is a stunning trail that traverses the rim of White Rock Canyon, As you ride, you get amazing, panoramic views down the steep mesa to the Rio Grande River and over the open desert. This is a great trail for riders of all ability levels; it's generally flat with great views and a few rocky basalt steps to keep things interesting.

The Ruin Mesa Trail is a great trail along the top of the mesa that offers great views over the canyon rim to the surrounding area. The trail starts off headed east gradually, but then gets fairly steep as you get toward the end of the mesa - if descending this trail, most dismount for at least some of it until they get to the junction of the Lower Water Canyon Trail.
