Overview

Less ice, more true wilderness. While big swathes of North America deal with snow and icy roads, we enjoy exemplary outdoor wintertime adventure in the heart of the Mojave Desert.

Roam America’s largest national park outside Alaska: 3,373,063-acre Death Valley National Park. Despite its rather foreboding name, Death Valley represents a stellar trekking destination. Hikers and bikers, climbers to rock hounds come to marvel at Spring’s astounding wildflower blooms, not to mention the mild temperatures of fall and winter. Outdoors people will relish 3,000-square miles of headspace, while cyclists find enviable elbowroom in 350-miles of road and trails (a full 91% of Death Valley is designated wilderness.)

Cycle across the big valley floor, stopping to visit historic sites, most of them accessed by 1930s-era Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) roads. Almost immediately we come to appreciate their legacy of roads built to respect, rather than conquer the landscape.

Navigate sunbaked foothills, knolls, and stacks of boulders etched in yellow clay, rose and tan. It might seem otherworldly. George Lucas thought so. This fantastic landscape, it served as the backdrop for the first Star Wars film, standing in for the planet Tatooine.

Each day in this storied place—contemplating 20-mule team wagons, Death Valley Scotty, the lost 49ers—you wake up in unfettered horizon. The evenings are given over to serious unwinding—“Prickly Pear margaritas, anyone?”—wrapped in great theatre: watching the two-mile high, 60-mile long Panamint Mountains, the valley’s defining range to the West, transition from shades of cool blue to a deep, purple bruise as the evening light drops away. In the other direction, the Amargosa range to the east is radiant, bathed in bronze tones.

We are the authentic conscience of adventure outfitters: our desert West trips set the standard. When you experience these lands by mountain bike, led by people who have a deep connection to Red Rock and Death Valley, you’ll quickly learn this is not a place to be endured, but rather a world-class outdoor recreation destination.

Day 1-2: Las Vegas meet-up. Shuttle to Beatty; ride the new Spicer Ranch Trails, finishing with a cowboy dinner. The next day, descend epic Titus Canyon into Death Valley. Layover in beautiful Monarch Canyon.
Day 3-4: Climb to the top of Chloride Cliffs; explore ancient mining ruins. Hike down Monarch Canyon to the portal view of Death Valley. Visit massive sand dunes, then Stovepipe Wells. Stop at the National Park Visitor Center. Shuttle to Red Rock Canyon.
Day 5: Ride Cottonwood Valley’s fabulous trail network, nestled below the cliffs of Red Rock Canyon. Shuttle back to Las Vegas.

First-Class Camping

The food tastes better, the sky is certainly bigger, and your mind is clearer.

There is nothing better than rolling into camp to fresh made chips and salsa, homemade guacamole, and Dutch oven enchiladas. Then making your way to a sweet and inviting campfire, sharing your favorite anecdote or image from the day’s activities while marshmallows roast. Inside your tent: a sturdy raised cot, fluffy sleeping bag, and a plush full size pillow. Wow. You earned this. Sweet dreams.

We choose well-maintained public campgrounds with scenic vistas and comfortable arrangements. You’ll move seamlessly from one day of your trip to the next, camping outdoors and enjoying wildly healthy, delicious homemade meals.

The majority of our selected campgrounds feature indoor facilities and showers. Conversely, in more remote backcountry camping scenarios, we’ll provide portable toilets and private solar showers.

Camping gear may be rented or you may bring your own. All of our camping gear is tested and hand-chosen from top manufacturers to ensure you get a good night’s sleep. Our camp gear package includes a tent, sleeping pad, raised cot, sleeping bag, sleeping bag liner, full size pillow, and ground tarp.

While we do our best to bring you the above hotel accommodations, lodging may vary depending on your departure date. Call us at 1.800.596.2953 for more details.

Reviews

Death Valley & Red Rocks -- great time with EA! We did the 5-day MTB excursion to Beatty, Death Valley and Red Rocks. Had a great time, and our guides Troy, Dylan and Will were outstanding. Chef Troy is a culinary magician - making 5-star meals out of the sag wagon in the middle of the desert. We looked forward to the food almost as much as the riding. The terrain got pretty rough (aka "chunky") at times, so the less-experienced among us -- like me -- struggled through some sections. I wish the MTB world had a more universal rating system like skiing (green/blue/black) so riders could calibrate themselves onto the right trails. Overall it was a great time, superbly organized by EA. I would ride with them again. - Lance F - 4/11/2019

Escape Adventures Tour of the Mohave Great friends and outstanding natural beauty in this desert MB cycling experience. Great active vacation for the four of us. Guides were invaluable facilitators, great cooks, and excellent riders. - Patrick C - 3/25/2017
