Mountain Biking Prospect Trail

****   Add a review
#117 of 1,383 mountain bike trails in Colorado
#773 in the world

Single track thru the forest above Telluride. Tight single track with very few rocks on the trail. Two stream crossings, both on the bile. Trail crosses several open ski runs with spectacular views. The trail is mostly thru the forest with a few technical spots due to cornering climbs. Can be muddy after a rain, with very shallow puddles

Rider questions

Q: Time?
A: Depends on if you are riding from the gondola to Mountain Village or vice versus. I am a pretty experienced rider and it takes me about 1.5 hours from Mountain Village to the gondola. Quite a bit less the opposite direction. The trail can become busy.
