Cycle Divide Montana Mountain Bike Tour -- WHITEFISH -- July 11th - 15th

July 11th

Fully-supported week-long group mountain bike tour east of the Montana Rockies. 50 riders, catered meals, 252 miles in 5 riding days. Camping with motel options. Advanced intermediate level of difficulty. $1159.

Here's your chance to sample our heralded Great Divide Mountain Bike Route fully supported and load free! We'll travel from the lively resort town of Whitefish, located near Glacier National Park, to the southern end of the spectacular Swan Range, one of Montana's less-visited geologic gems. Not far away rests Flathead Lake, the largest natural freshwater lake in the West.

Riding mostly on abandoned logging roads and a bit of single-track trail, we'll experience the high country of one of the world's great wild-land complexes. Along the way, we'll encounter a variety of flora and fauna - the sharp-eyed might even spot wild huckleberries ripe for the picking, or the occasional bear on a distant hillside. We'll layover for a day in Seeley Lake, where you might rent a canoe and paddle the gentle Clearwater Canoe Trail. Back on the bikes, we'll skirt the boundaries of the Bob Marshall and Scapegoat wilderness areas and crest the Continental Divide before dropping into Lincoln, our ultimate destination.
