Description

Troy Built is a spur trail to the Kokapelli Trail system that connects Grand Junction and Moab. Named after its builder, the Troy Built Trail features fantastic singletrack, steep climbs and technical trail features.

Troy Built is a loop and can be ridden in either direction, though clockwise is the recommended way. Troy Built is well signed so navigation is not much of a problem here. The climbing takes place mostly on dirt road and the downhill is all singletrack. Views to the Colorado River and surrounding desert country are quite good from Troy Built and this ride can be incorporated into a longer combination of area trails.
