Glorieta Adventure Camps

From the north end of the Glorieta RV Park head up the jeep road until it reaches the small dam and turn left across the damn and then right up the valley. The first 3-4 miles are all rideable pleasant single track next to a seasonal stream. Very quickly, however, the trail will turn up the side of the mountain, and YOU WILL HIKE, for what seems like forever. Eventually the trail mellows out enough to become temporarily rideable, but it will once again become too steep to ride after a mile or so. After another hike-a-bike jaunt, the last half mile or so until the road intersection is mostly rideable for the fit or determined. I have included the last half mile of jeep road that eventually reaches the summit of Glorieta Baldy, and connects into Secret Trail, for a short but burly loop from the Camps.
