Long Valley Private Ride: Electric Dirt Bike Adventure Near Zion | ATV/UTV | Bike Tour

Long Valley Private Ride puts you on an electric dirt bike in the wide-open desert around Leeds, Utah, riding through Long Valley and Warner Valley with a private guide. The meet-at-trailhead format drops you onto rolling singletrack, sandy stretches and slickrock slabs that reveal broad views of the Colorado Plateau where sandstone layers sculpt ridgelines and mesas. This is Southern Utah riding: speed, flow, and a little edge—built for former dirt bikers, mountain bikers and thrill-seekers who want more than a scenic cruise. The route threads open desert bowls, carved slickrock, and wind-scoured washes rather than groomed park trails. Expect flowing whoops, short technical sections, and sandy corners that demand throttle control and line choice. Riders praise the way the electric powerplants accelerate across flats and climb slickrock without the noise or weight of gas bikes; with fewer mechanical distractions you can focus on line and rhythm while the valley unfolds. The private format caps at three riders with the option to add riders, which keeps the pace tailored to your group and minimizes line congestion across the fragile slickrock. Long Valley and neighboring Warner Valley sit on Navajo and Kayenta sandstone benches common to the Colorado Plateau; their slickrock surfaces and sparse pinyon-juniper stands create both dramatic photography and fragile soils. From vantage points on slickrock you can scan toward Zion’s eastern flanks—Zion National Park, established in 1919, is a short drive away—and the checkerboard of desert washes that feed the Virgin River system. This ride is an immersion in Southern Utah’s motorized side of the backcountry, and operators emphasize responsible riding: stick to established routes, avoid cryptobiotic soils, and carry out any trash. Intermediate off-road comfort is recommended; the experience is fast-paced enough to thrill but accessible if you know how to manage traction and body position on loose sand and slickrock. Practical details: the operation meets at a trailhead near Leeds, Utah, and private bookings include up to three riders with options to expand the group. Bring sturdy gloves, a DOT-approved helmet, layered clothing, plenty of water and a charged phone. For photographers, the low-angle afternoon light slants across the sandstone, and sunrise opens soft contrasts across the valleys. If you want a short, high-adrenaline way to experience Southern Utah’s geology and open desert, the Long Valley Private Ride delivers speed, exposure, and big views without the typical dust and roar of gas motorcycles. Local guides read terrain like a rider reads a line: they choose routes that highlight variety while protecting sensitive ground. The private electric format reduces noise disturbance in habitat and lets riders feel acceleration without heavy maintenance. Expect clear briefings, bike tuning, and a focus on leaving the desert you found it responsibly.
