A couple stands on a rocky cliff overlooking a scenic canyon with a winding river. They are smiling and celebrating, one person raising their arm in excitement. In the background, the colorful rock formations and greenery contrast against the clear blue sky. A pair of mountain bikes is resting nearby. Porcupine Rim mountain bike trail.

Mountain Biking Porcupine Rim

*****   Add a review
#12 of 709 mountain bike trails in Utah
#137 in the world

To put this ride down in words would do it no justice!! You must ride Porcupine Rim and see it first hand for yourself! It is an extremely technical downhill with some of the most amazing singletrack anywhere! One of the riders in our group, Steve, put it perfectly...."That was the most technical singletrack I've ever walked!!" And Steve is an excellent rider, so may that be a warning to the beginner/intermediate riders out there!!

Getting there
The trailhead is located on Sand Flats Road, the same road as the World famous Slickrock Bike Trail. 6 1/2 miles past Slickrock is the trailhead for Porcupine Rim. It is a dirt/gravel road from Slickrock on, but you should have no problem in a car. From their, take the Porcupine Doubletrack down to the Porcupine Singletrack.
