Promontory to Round Valley

This was an energetic ride with Jesus! We had a head wind biking to Round Valley. The return trip was a blast, riding 15mph to 25mph back.

PARK CITY MOUNTAIN BIKING

DESCRIPTION: At Promontory, ride the rail trail toward Park City. Be careful crossing the Kamas road. After riding the first paved section to the gate, turn right and bike up the road. You'll find a paved parkway trail on the right. Stay on this trail until you reach the ballpark. There are restrooms, pop machines, and picnic tables to take a break. Take Quinns Trail south up the hill. Turn left at the next road. Go straight (north) at the next junction. Turn left, biking west up the next hill to a parking area.

ROUND VALLEY

Across the parking lot, you'll find the Round Valley trails. Bike up the trail and do not take the side trails. Turn left on Cammy's trail. At the top you'll find a bench to sit on. Ride up the Seventy Seven trail and turn right on the Valderoad. You'll enjoy a roller coaster ride back to the ball park.
