Starting at 2740 W. State Route 89A, participants launch into a day packed with incredible sites and technical trails.

After soaking in the cultural history, riders push their skills on Diamondback Gulch, a challenging technical trail weaving through narrow canyons and rugged rock formations, perfect for those craving an adrenaline boost.
The tour’s vehicles are Polaris ATVs, maintained for safety and performance, outfitted with helmets, goggles, and turn-by-turn trail maps to keep things fun and secure. Fuel, bottled water, and an ice-filled cooler are provided, but visitors are encouraged to pack a lunch and snacks, as the route takes you far from everyday amenities. Drivers need a valid license, with some age restrictions on vehicle models, but otherwise, this ride accommodates a broad range of skill levels.
