Utah Ride – Escalante

Climate Ride Utah-Escalante explores the beauty of Utah’s natural splendor and unparalleled National Parks and Monuments. Riding on quiet back roads and remote byways, this Climate Ride will challenge, inspire, and surprise as you pedal and connect with like-minded people dedicated to advancing sustainability.

On Climate Ride Utah-Escalante, you’ll spend five days cycling on a scenic journey that explores some of the best that the Beehive State has to offer. We’ll see inspiring scenery, stay at remote camps, visit several incredible National Parks and Monuments, and experience the thrill of touring by bicycle with a small community united by their passion for sustainability, renewable energy, and bicycles – the ultimate carbon-free form of transportation.

Our outfitter’s staff takes care of all the details, so you can focus on riding the 40-75 miles per day of carefully-planned routes on scenic roads. It’s challenging yet achievable, and you have all day to make it to the next rest stop. Meals, snacks, bike support, luggage transport, and all of the logistics are included when you reach the fundraising commitment. On the road, the Climate Ride support team is always nearby to assist you, keep you happy and healthy, and make your ride worry-free and memorable. Average temperatures this time of year are the 60s-70s during the day and lows in the upper 30s and 40s. In October, the cottonwoods will be ablaze in the yellow of fading summer. Bike rental options are available. This is a camping trip, but hotel options are also available on 3 of the 4 nights at an additional cost. More information will be available in your ride guide.

If you’re driving to the ride, we’ll meet you in Torrey, Utah. If you’re flying, we recommend flying into Salt Lake City (SLC), renting a car, and driving to Torrey (approx. 3.5 hours). On the night before the ride, we’ll meet up for a socially-distanced gathering to celebrate the beginning of this grand adventure.
