Monitor and Merrimac Slick Rock Extravaganza
This handsome and varied mountain bike ride is full of different routes of mostly gentle slick rock - easy enough for novices, interesting enough for more advanced riders. Pretty much paradise. It is the ideal first day of mountain biking Utah to warm up your biking legs and learn some slick rock skills. Probably our most popular ride - we know and appreciate it so much.
Solfun's knowledgeable Moab bike guides have our own favorite playgrounds in this beautiful neighborhood of wide-open spaces and towering buttes, towers and hoodoos. Part of the fun of mountain biking Utah is taking in your surroundings, including historic pictographs and petrified dinosaur bones that you can walk right up to. Words don't do it justice, so take a look at our photos.
The Monitor & Merrimac ride truly is an adventure on Moab's slick rock, discovering pockets of little-explored beauty and mountain biking fun that many Utah regulars have not yet discovered. You'll like this one because Solfun's expert Moab bike guides know all the best Utah mountain biking routes and photo backdrops.
