The best gravel rides around Show Low

Sitgreaves National Forest is a vast and diverse area characterized by numerous mountains and lakes. The region offers a tranquil and largely secluded environment, providing ample campgrounds for those looking to extend their exploration and immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the surroundings.

Situated on the edge of a picturesque meadow with scattered aspen trees, this campground offers a stunning display of fall colors when the leaves change. Once a Forest Service Ranger Station, remnants of the old structures can still be seen in the area.

There are a bunch of singletrack trails crossing the gravel forest road here. You can keep on the service road if you want to go fast, but if you want fun, flowy singletrack trails, then turn onto of the side trails. There aren't a ton of hills here, so you aren't signing up for anything you'll regret if you turn off of the road.

Slow down and enjoy your ride, maybe have a small picnic!
