Bob’s Basin Freeride Trails
To preface, if you’re looking for gnarly jump lines or freeride style mountain biking in the contemporary sense of the word, you should head to a different Park City freeride mountain bike trail. However, Bob’s Basin Freeride trails are still a ton of fun to zip around on or link up with a longer ride, and definitely worth a visit for directional, flowy Park City trail riding.
A popular option is to link Bob’s Basin up with a longer ride such as Glenwild Loop or Flying Dog.
