This is not some remote spot that’s hard to get to. 3 miles from downtown Buena Vista. Gas, a liquor store and Pizza Hut less than a mile away.

Buena Vista is in the absolute center of the most beautiful parts of Colorado, where you can experience a different ride every day. We’ll spend a total of six days exploring the rugged and easy or challenging passes around what’s known as the “Heart of the Rockies” … Chaffee County is home to more 14teeners (14 ,000 foot peaks) than any other county in the Country.

Located in Southcental Colorado, Buena Vista is famous for its hot springs, outdoor activities, and its historic charming downtown. Its rich history dates back to the late 1800’s, when the city was established as a railroad junction for 3 Railroads feeding the multitude of Silver, Gold and Lead mines in the region.

This area of Colorado is an adventure mecca, surrounded by public roads accessible only by motorcycles and four-wheel drive vehicles.

Easy Access to multiple loops for each discipline.
Ride on the Continental Divide and the Mosquito Range.
Ride along and over the Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range.
Ride from the Headwaters of the Arkansas River in Leadville.
