Bikepacking Routes

Set within the snowy peaks of the Sierra Nevada, the Tahoe Twirl circumnavigates the vast and mesmerising Lake Tahoe. Beginning in Reno, it blends burly desert jeep roads with classic Tahoe singletrack. Add mellow bike paths, remote forest roads, fantastic camping real estate, and an abundance of swimming spots... and you have yourself a wonderful introduction to this beautiful area.

Set to a skyscape of Simpson-esque clouds, Northern New Mexico abounds with high pastures, primitive two track, and backcountry trails. Beginning on the Colorado border, this long weekend, high elevation route showcases some of the most enjoyable bikepacking in the state, making use of the Continental Divide Trail to lace in mile upon mile of remote singletrack. If hot springs are your style, round off the ride by pampering yourself in the luxurious desert resort of Ojo Caliente, where public transport will whisk you back to Española, Santa Fe, or Albuquerque.

El Camino del Diablo, “The Devil’s Highway,” is an historic 130-mile route from Ajo to Yuma, Arizona. Passing through Organ Pipe National Monument, Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge, and a starkly beautiful wilderness, the Camino is an incredible way to experience a landscape that’s unlike anything else in the United States.
