About the Grand Canyon and Zion Bike Route
One of the things that makes this route so interesting is how much the landscape changes along the way. From forested mountain roads and the higher elevations of the Kaibab Plateau to wide-open desert stretches, there's plenty of variety across the nine days of riding.
It's certainly not an easy ride, with some substantial climbs and long days in the saddle. But there's plenty to look forward to beyond the cycling itself. Two dedicated explore/rest days give you time to visit the national parks, take in the views and enjoy the places you've travelled so far to see.
You'll share the experience with a team of fellow cyclists, supported by our Route Leaders throughout the trip. And with everyone fundraising to support people living with MS, there's a shared purpose behind the miles you're covering.
