ATV & MOTORCYCLING

Throttle Therapy in the Mountains

If you’re the kind of adventurer who loves the roar of the engine and the wind in your face, Salida’s backroads and high mountain passes are calling. From rugged ATV routes to scenic highway loops made for motorcycles, this area is a dream for throttle-powered exploration. And when you stay at A-Lodge Salida, you’re perfectly positioned to launch your journey into the wild.

Kick things off with a ride up Marshall Pass or Poncha Creek, where rough trails lead to high alpine views and off-grid solitude. Prefer a smoother ride? Take the scenic loop to Gunnison and back, carving through canyons and open valleys on two wheels. Colorado’s backcountry offers the kind of variety that keeps explorers coming back: ghost towns, riverside picnic spots, old mining roads, and mile after mile of unpaved promise.

And when the dust settles? Pull back into A-Lodge, crack a drink, swap stories with other road warriors, and settle in under the stars with a view of the peaks you just conquered.
