Prepare For The Ride
Make sure you have the right gear and expectation for an extreme high-altitude alpine run.
Pikes Peak Plummet Route Overview
This route links together several trails in the Colorado Springs area to provide 7,120 feet of descending. This route is best serviced by shuttling up Pikes Peak to the Elk Park Trail. Otherwise, this becomes a MUCH longer, grueling ride.
Need to Know
Multi-use Trails: These trails are multi-use. Watch out for others, including dirt bikes, horses, and hikers!
No Cell Service: Don't expect cell service after you drop into Elk Park until the top of Buckhorn. Pack to self support.
Isolated Areas: The Lake Moraine Trail is isolated. Access for rescue is very difficult. If utilizing Barr Camp, familiarize yourself with their hours and amenities.
Loose Gravel: The trails are often very loose gravel in sections. Fatter tires recommended.
Estimated Ride Time: Typically takes 3.5 to 5 hours of active riding. Weather changes, route navigation, or mechanical flats can easily push the total trip to 6+ hours.
Support & Donation
Recommended donation is $50 per rider. I'm a local mountain biker who loves sharing the opportunity to ride this epic set of trails with other biking enthusiasts. Since I have a flexible work schedule, I also look to participate in local trail build day opportunities on top of organizing shuttles like this.
