High Desert Trail System

This is our crown jewel. Excellent single track that makes an uninterrupted 20-mile loop (going to be a little less with new trail head location). Changes have been taking place at the more frequented Gamerco side Trailhead. Hopefully that will be completed soon, and we will have an east side access point again. So, get out to the Mentmore Trailhead and have some fun.

Northside Trail

This trail is for the more advanced. It can have some very technical parts. The loop is big and comes in around 10 miles, but some recent trail building has taken place to add some additional routes. Just like in investments big risks can give big returns. Northside offers big returns in the form of a challenge and pure fun.

McGaffey Trails

Just a 20 minute plus drive takes you to a completely different landscape than Gallup. Instead of riding wide open mesas with little cover you are now in the forest and usually about 10 – 20 degrees cooler. Everything here is going to be ups and downs. You have three main parking areas to tackle the numerous trails with the most popular being the Hilso Trailhead.

Gallup Trail Sidenotes:

I think some people get discouraged about hitting these trails because they get nervous about the technical aspects. Don’t be, nothing says you can’t dismount the bike and push over the difficult part. Riding allows you to get outside and explore our amazing area.

If you think mountain biking is something you want to try you have some trail options that don’t take you to the High Desert or Northside. Take your bike out to Rehoboth and have some fun on the number of trails between this community and the Indian Hills Neighborhood. This is a place that you can enjoy a ride.
