Mountain Biking Sugarite Canyon State Park

****   Add a review
#49 of 283 mountain bike trails in New Mexico
#3,431 in the world

The main bikeable route is a simple 6 mile loop, best done clockwise. Look for the singletrack on the left. The dird road behind the gate is where you'll come out. There's a stiff climb through the ponerosa forest with some techy rock gardens. Then a steep, switchback drop down the northern flank of the mountain to a creek that will take back to Lake Maloya.
