Words: Jackson Hole Bike Park


Years of planning, days of digging, and hours of test riding by a dedicated trail crew and local athletes have converged to unlock the next phase of the JH Bike Park, expanding up the Sweetwater Gondola. Four new trails of varying difficulty and length introduce a new era of biking at JHMR that any new or seasoned rider can test their skills on. Grab your bike, hitch a ride up 1,276 vertical feet, and experience Sweetwater Unlocked.
