The Ride

Overview

A 4-day backcountry guided mountain biking adventure in Moab's canyon country from the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park to Moab

Join us for a 4-day backcountry adventure in Moab’s canyon country! We’ll ride from the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park to Moab. With its primitive spirit and Wild West atmosphere, our ride past towering hoodoos and otherworldly rock formations through Lockhart Basin offers the perfect getaway. This remote route loosely follows the Colorado River, along a rugged 4-wheel drive road that offers mountain bikers a fun and mostly moderate tour. Fantastic views of canyons, mesas, buttes, and spires, wide-open spaces, and solitude define this backcountry tour. For those considering doing a multi-day tour for their first time, especially those who have little or no camping experience, we’ve written a detailed description of what it’s like to go on a multi-day tour with us.

Day-by-Day Itinerary


The Multi-Day Difference

Everything hauled, cooked, and set up — you just ride.

A Rim Tours multi-day camping trip is a fully supported, fully catered backcountry experience. You pedal world-class trails all day; we carry the gear, run the kitchen, and have camp — cold drink in hand — waiting when you roll in.

  • Rugged Overland Support

    A purpose-built 4x4 support truck carries every bag, tent, and cooler — so you ride light and free, with a lift or a break never far away.

  • Full Camp Kitchen

    A complete mobile kitchen rolls with us, run by guides who genuinely cook. Real, fresh meals in the heart of the backcountry.

  • Fresh Trail Lunches

    Midday spreads built right on the trail — never sad, squished, pre-made sandwiches.

  • Hot Dinners in Camp

    Hearty, satisfying dinners cooked fresh every evening under the desert stars.

  • Cold Drinks, Always

    Plenty of water and ice, the cold beverages you love waiting at camp, and crisp cold sparkling water out on the trail.

  • Camp Set & Waiting

    Camp chairs, a relaxed camp, and your tent already set up when you roll in. Arrive, unwind, refuel.

  • Deeply Experienced Guides

    Guides with decades on these trails — part navigator, part mechanic, part chef, part storyteller.
