Moab Weddings: Bartlett Wash Bike Trail Moab Utah

Bartlett Wash Trail

Bartlett Wash is one of David's all-time favorite rides. This ride is on sandstone/slickrock, and in our opinion is pretty intermediate in terms of difficulty. It is located 18 miles north of Moab. We have never seen a lot of other people on this trail, which is a huge bonus. The trail itself is only about 4 miles, with really no marked trail -- but it is a playground of open slickrock. You could spend the whole day here and not get bored, with enough technical nooks and crannies to keep even advanced riders interested. The views are outstanding.
