Day Camp: Highlands Ranch Mountain Biking Day Camp

Vital Details


This fun and safety focused Avid4 Adventure Mountain Biking Camp offers kids the opportunity to ride different trails in the  Highlands Ranch and Castlerock area. During the week of camp, participants develop skills through increasingly challenging activities, exercises, and diverse trails, while developing team building and individual leadership skills with their peers. In our Avid4 Adventure Mountain Biking Camp, kids also learn basic bike maintenance skills like changing flats and solving gear problems.

We strongly encourage participants to use their own bicycle 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 two wheels in dirt before registering.
