Mountain Biking Bunsen Peak Road
#111 of 256 mountain bike trails in Wyoming
The trail is pretty simple. 5 miles one way. Double-track road with a little climb around Bunsen Peak; downhill after the turnaround. Some of the trail has high grass, so be prepared for grass seed in your socks and/or sneezing. Bears are in the area so be bear aware. I saw one on my most recent ride. Only a black bear, but it got the heart going.

You can start from either end of Bunsen Peak Rd. I start from the trail head just outside of Mammoth in Yellowstone NP. The trail head is back where the park's employees live, so it might be tricky to find, but it's there.
Rode this mid-August of 2015. Fun ride; however, I came across a black bear on the trail about 2-3 miles in, which put a little scare in me, but all was good after that. Be bear aware though. Even though I had spray, I was alone, and discharging bear spray while riding a bike isn't the easiest thing to do.
