The San Isabel National Forest in South Central Colorado has a jewel of an ATV riding trail called Indian Creek. The trail is 15-miles long and is rated easy so the people in your group that are new to ATVing don't have to pass time at the trailhead going in circles while everyone else rides the difficult ATV trails. This is a trail system that all ATVers can enjoy. This is also a great place to camp at the designated points around the area and make a whole weekend out of riding your ATVs with your friends.
At this ATV trail, newer ATVers can learn to trail ride. A good rule of thumb is to wait until the rider behind you catches up so no one gets left behind. Also never follow the ATVer in front of you too closely or you may wind up smacking your riding partner's ATV. Getting the chances to navigate your ATV on actual trails is great experience for newer ATVers.
In addition to picking up some new riding skills, new riders will also learn how to properly share the trails. These is a multi-use ATV trail so be aware you will be sharing this trail during the riding season of May 15 through November 15 with all kinds of traffic from other ATV riders to hikers to motorcycle and mountain bikers.
This is fun ATV ride for everyone because it is never truly a flat trail. It gently rolls up and down so new riders get good practice taking their ATVs up and down gentle inclines. There is a great view from every point on the trail and if you are riding in the early morning or late afternoon hours you will see a lot of deer in the area.
Indian Creek is ready and waiting to be your next ATV riding excursion. Gather up your group, pack up your camping equipment and make a full weekend of ATVing fun!
