      The Zuni Mountains offer 50+ miles of singletrack across moderate terrain among Ponderosa forests and rolling mountains. Access is easy, with a couple of trailheads about 10 miles south of Interstate 40. There are two campgrounds and plenty of dispersed camping nearby.

      The best riding is had from April to November but the winter months offer cross-country skiing, snow showing and fat biking depending on snow depths. In addition to singetrack options, there are also hundreds of miles of rugged forest two-track that offer the opportunity to explore some beautiful and remote areas. Bikepacking options abound but water isnt always easy to find in the dry months.
