With relatively flat terrain, wide bike lanes, and bike trails that follow both the Poudre River and Spring Creek, bicycling is a fun, healthy, and environmentally friendly way to recreate and see all that Fort Collins has to offer. There are over 200 miles of bike lanes, trails and paths ready for all levels of rider, so the whole family can participate!

Didn't bring your bike? The Fort Collins Bicycle Library lends bicycles to visitors and residents looking to explore the City of Fort Collins. They offer a variety of self-guided tours from the "Bike the Sites" collection, including the Brewery Tour, Environmental Learning Tour, and the Historic Homes Tour. The Bike Library is centrally located in the heart of downtown Fort Collins at the Cafe Bicyclette. For more information, please visit www.fcbikelibrary.org.

If it's mountain biking you are after, we have lots of great mountain biking trails minutes from downtown. Check out Lory State Park or Horsetooth Mountain Park for prime mountain biking action. The Corral Center Mountain Bike Park is Lory State Park's newest addition. The park's old horse corrals, located just southeast of the visitor center, have been converted into a mountain bike park where riders of all abilities can participate in this unique bicycle challenge area. With 70,000 square feet of track, the mountain bike park is Colorado's first officially state sponsored dirt/pump track area. You can learn more at www.parks.state.co.us/Parks/lory.
