Written Directions

From highway 151 north of Lake Navajo turn onto County Road 500 and JUST KEEP GOING till you hit Pagosa Springs

Scenery

Beautiful route through backroads Colorado along the old route the logging trains took to Pagosa Springs. Old rail cars, abandoned towns, church, truly backroads.

Drive Enjoyment

This is dirt and gravel, NOT suitable for road bikes. Dual Sport or Dirt bikes only. Summer only.

Tourism Opportunities

There's streams you could possibly get water from but there are NO stops, NO gas, nothing but back country.

We rode this on a Friday on the way to Pendleton for Bike Week. Absolutely stunning views on a clear day. Typical occasional slowdowns due to road repairs but nothing that detracted from the ride. A must-do ride in WA.

Rained most of the day had som snow , sleet, freezing rain and a rock fell off the mountain east of Wolf Creek Pass and they had the road closed while they were clearing the road we sat in the rain and snow waiting. It messed the road up pretty bad it was a dirt road for about ½ mile
