Mountain Bike the Limber Pine Trail
AdventureModerateSummerYear-round
Navigate a high-altitude loop at the summit of Logan Canyon featuring a 2,500-year-old tree and panoramic views of Bear Lake.
Itinerary tips
- 1Park at the large designated lot at the Logan Canyon summit, located about 28 miles east of Logan on US-89.
- 2Budget 60 to 90 minutes for this 1.5-mile loop to account for the high elevation and frequent photo stops at the overlooks.
- 3Carry a windbreaker even in summer, as the 7,800-foot altitude at the ridge often results in significantly lower temperatures and high winds.
- 4Ride the loop in a clockwise direction to enjoy a more gradual climb followed by a fast, sweeping descent.
- 5Bring a camera with a wide-angle lens specifically to capture the massive 2,500-year-old Limber Pine located near the halfway point.
- 6Pack a picnic to enjoy at the trailhead tables after your ride, featuring local cheese and ice cream from the Gossner Foods or USU Creamery in Logan.
