Trip details

57hours is committed to providing safe outdoor adventure experiences. We require all guides using our platform to have a COVID-19 safety plan and to make the details of that plan accessible to travelers. In most cases, group sizes will be reduced, guides will avoid overcrowded locations, and other safety measures will be met depending on the location and activity.

We also expect clients to respect local regulations and take measures to protect themselves, their guides, and the communities they’re traveling to. For more information on COVID-19 measures in Dead Horse Point, Utah, please refer to the official Utah COVID-19 update website.

Please contact us if you have any questions or require further information. We are happy to provide you with the most up-to-date information!

What you get on this adventure:

• • An experienced MTB guide with extensive local knowledge of the area
  • Mountain bike, helmet, and hydration pack
  • Transportation

Intermediate rides come with a hardtail bike. You can upgrade to a full-suspension bike for an added fee of $15.

What’s not included:

• • Bike insurance ($15) — optional
  • Accommodations
  • Food and snacks

These tours are suitable for riders with good to excellent fitness levels. You will need to be able to bike between three to five hours. After booking, your guide will determine the group’s skill level and capabilities and cater the day to your specific abilities. Keep in mind, temperature during the warmer months can be very high.

You should be comfortable riding on and off of curb-size obstacles/features. You should also have good fitness. Previous trail riding experience is preferred, but riders who are very comfortable on road or gravel bikes may do just fine on this tour. Trail surfaces may include uneven terrain and narrow trails, singletrack, with occasional obstacles (roots, rocks, sand). Hills and descents are moderate to strenuous and require some skill.

• • Wear comfortable riding or athletic clothing, preferably moisture-wicking or synthetic material
  • Sneakers or sport shoes
  • Breathable outside layer or jacket
  • Sunglasses
  • Plenty of water, water bottle, or hydration bladder
  • Daypack with snacks
  • Biking gloves are optional but recommended
  • Bike repair kit
  • Toiletries (sunscreen, hand sanitizer, bug spray, toilet paper, etc.)

Dress comfortably and for the weather in clothes you can move in. We suggest bringing clothing appropriate for the season. Layers are best and don’t wear jean

Group sizes and prices:

• • The group size for these tours is usually between 1-6 people with one guide.
  • Costs per person decrease as the group grows, so it’s the perfect opportunity to climb with friends and family.
  • Standard tours require a minimum of 2 people to run. If you are a party of one, and if you are willing to pay the solo rate, your guide guarantees that your tour will run — even if you end up being the only person on it.

Mountain biking in Dead Horse Point can be arranged for bigger groups. Contact us prior to booking.

Min. age requirements:

• • If you are older than 18, you’re good to go.
  • Children as young as 10 are able to go on trips with a legal guardian. That said, if you have a young rider strong enough to handle sustained climbs (either riding or walking their bike) of hundreds of feet, and rough terrain, then they may be able to participate on a case-by-case basis.

If your group has riders under the age of 18, contact us prior to booking to make arrangements.
