Day Camp: Denver Mountain Biking Day Camp

This fun and safety focused Mountain Biking Camp offers kids the opportunity to ride different Denver trails and areas throughout the week. During camp participants develop skills through increasingly challenging activities, exercises, and differing terrain, while developing team building and individual leadership skills with their peers. Basic bike maintenance skills like changing flats and solving gear problems are also taught to your children.

We strongly encourage participants to use their own bicycles during this program to allow for greatest transfer of skill development, however we can provide helmets and mountain bikes if needed. Please make sure your child is comfortable on dirt with two wheels before registering for this program.  Popular, age-appropriate rides include: Jefferson County Open Spaces, bike parks in Golden and Castlerock, and nearby state parks.
