Mountain Biking North Shore Lake Pueblo State Park

While the South Shore of Lake Pueblo has way more miles of singletrack and receives much, much more traffic than the trails on the north side, if you've ridden everything there is to ride on the south side, the northern trails are well-worth investigating as well.
From the parking area listed here, the North Shore Marina trail heads both ways out of the parking lot. Continuing north, the trail intersects with a number of other pieces of singletrack: some marked, some not marked.
On average, this set of trails is much easier than those on the south side... ie, there are no canyons, so these trails are much more similar to Inner Limits and Outer Limits.
However, if you spend enough time riding around, you may find a section of drops and jumps that is quite entertaining and well-worth sessioning!

    I went here with negative expectations and was pleasantly surprised. There's none of the canyon's gnar of the South Shore, but the singletrack is every bit as good, if not better, than the cross-country style trails on the south side--there's just not as many miles of it.

    While the North Shore Trail and Eagle Mesa Trails are good XC fun, this trail really makes the small North Shore Lake Pueblo trail system worth riding. The drops are way fun--check them out!

    Since I gave the South Shore 4 stars, I really can only give this 3... but it's probably close to 3.5, and I honestly think it's well-worth the time to check out. However, with so many trails so easily accessible on the south side, I can see why these don't get as much traffic... but if you want to get away from the crowds and ride dry singletrack in Pueblo, this is a great choice!
