What’s Included? Click here for details…

Overview:

The singletrack and scenery of the Durango High Country tour are second to none. The San Juan Mountain Range has been referred to as “America’s Alps”..a comparison with which we think you will agree. All-Star’s expert guides will take you on some of the area’s most classic routes, as well as a few special home-cooked secrets that surprise even Durango veterans.

Our base trip for this tour will be Silverpick Lodge. Tucked away in a quiet mountain setting, this village of private condo retreats features a flowing indoor/outdoor patio area complete with barbeques, a pool, and no fewer than three hot tubs. Each day after your ride we encourage you to grab a shower or soak in the hot tub before settling in next to the tripfire! While you relax under the clear Rocky Mountain skies, let our guides fire up the BBQ for the night’s meal as well as clean and professionally tune your bike in anticipation of the next day’s adventure.

We’ll roll out early each morning to get ahead of the unpredictable weather that so often moves in during summer afternoons in the high mountains. This one of the primary reasons we elect not to trip along the trail for this tour. We usher you a world class ride and help you unwind in the cushy comfort of Silverpick Lodge. “Ride hard and relax.”[/fancy-ul][vc_column_text]
