With an off-road cycling history dating back to the late 70s, Summit County is an iconic place to find the flow. And for good reason: the tightly wound and intricate trail network includes wide berms, switchbacks, and endless miles of smooth and flowy singletrack, all running through beautiful alpine terrain. The best part? Everyone can participate. From easy rides to black-diamond descents, Summit County’s classic loops accommodate all levels of riders. It’s an awesome place to push your skills, meet fellow female riders, and make life-long bonds on and off the trails.
