Zuma Bike Ranch invites you to ride.relax.repeat in the high desert of Southwest Colorado. Surround yourself with views of Mesa Verde National Park, Sleeping Ute and the San Juan mountains straight from your tent or camper van. Our goal is to encourage community among campers and bikers and connection with the land and its rich history. Zuma Bike Ranch resides on native lands of Puebloan and Ute peoples. At Zuma Bike Ranch, you will find purpose-built trails and mountain bike skills areas. We provide professional mountain bike instruction and guided rides for individuals and groups. You have immediate access to over 50 miles of world class singletrack at Phil’s World trail network. More mountain bike trails can be found nearby at the Aquaduct trail system in Mancos, Boggy Draw in Dolores and Sand Canyon at Canyons of the Ancients National Monument. In less than an hour you can be riding high alpine terrain with access to the Colorado Trail. We’re 45 minutes from Durango and 120 minutes from Moab, UT. We keep things simple at Zuma Bike Ranch. This is to minimize impact on the land and our environment. Each camp site can accommodate two vehicles and two tents. We have a nice sun shower, potable water source, and porta potty on site. There are no lights but there are plenty of stars! Please pack out what you pack in. Visit our website for questions or to book a group or private lesson.

    What a great spot!
    Amazing host, amazing spot, amazing trail access, shower… The only decision is do we keep this place a secret? Nah, we wouldn’t do that to Jake and Zuma! Thanks for a great stay! Rob and Bonnie

    Great camping close to Phil's World
    This is a great option for camping given the low inventory of dispersed camping and options in Cortez. It's a gorgeous plot of land and close to lots of riding. Jake came to meet us when we arrived and was super kind and fun to talk to. There is a shower, port-a-potty and water station available, which is a bonus!

    Great host, site, clinic, and trail
    Zuma Bike Ranch is an excellent place for any mountain biker or even someone just passing through. I stayed at the ranch for a Ninja clinic which the owner of the ranch himself instructs. The site was clean and spacious, I had plenty of room to set up my Tacoma’s camper-topper and did not need any leveling in the parking area. There is a porta-potty onsite a short walk from the campground and also a shower. The shower is very well built, and heated (primarily solar with a natural gas backup), adjacent to the shower is a bike wash which is a nice touch if it were to rain. The best part about camping at the ranch is the access to the trails built by Jake. They have variety, will challenge your skills as a rider, and you’ll have a blast, best of all it’s right off the campground loop, call it bike-in bike-out camping. It was a great place to take a clinic but would be a solid base camp to warm up on some of the private trails before exploring all Montezuma county has to offer. This really adds to the value of staying at the site. I would for sure stay here again.

    The Zuma bike ranch looks like a beautiful space. I can't wait to camp there sometime. Unfortunately, due to a pet emergency, we didn't make it for this reservation.
