Hayduke Trail: Utah Mountain Bike Tour: Highlights

Solitude and Silence

The Hayduke Trail MTB Tour, (a.k.a. the Trans-Utah), is one of the American West’s ultimate point-to-point MTB tours exploring the far reaches of southern Utah’s National Monuments and National Parks. The route starts near Big Water, Utah and ends in Moab, Utah. This is Utah’s world renowned “back-of-beyond” landscapes, including the new Bear’s Ears National Monument, Capitol Reef National Park and the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument. The Hayduke crosses only a few paved roads in its 440-miles of riding and as a result, offers unparalleled exploration and discovery.

In southern Utah nature throws out the rule book. Rock shaped by 50-million years of water has sculpted a jaw-dropping landscape of weird and wild shapes. This is a region of extremes: of distance, of darkness, of silence.

The Hayduke Trail is considered an MTB Gravel Grinder. What this means is that riding is not an overly technical ride. The trail surface is on small, rugged and remote jeep roads. The riding is downright fun! Prior to riders actually experiencing the Hayduke we often hear that “I want to ride singletrack”, but after riding the Hayduke a cyclist who was a singletrack junkie said to us that they thought it “was the best mountain bike ride they (I) have ever done”.

An E-Duke? Electric-MTB’s?

We will now be offering an E-MTB version of the Hayduke, calling it the E-Duke.  The E-Duke will be a good choice for a group of friends with varying abilities.

Join Lizard Head Cycling on this small group cycling odyssey within the serpentine redrock canyons of the Beehive State.

On December 27, 2016 much of the terrain that the 2nd week of our Hayduke Trail MTB Tour passes through was declared the Bear’s Ears National Monument by President Obama. This is a magnificent region of redrock cliffs, mysterious canyons and stone silence.

Difficulty Level?

“If you find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn’t lead anywhere.”

The Hayduke Trail MTB Tour is a MTB tour that seeks out backcountry exploration. Tour size is limited to 12 clients. Although the Hayduke tour is challenging in nature, it is not a death march! The tour’s fitness level is aimed at upper-intermediate to advanced fitness levels. The Hayduke Trail MTB Tour is not an overly technical ride; it is a spectacular “gravel grinder” type tour on small, rugged and remote jeep roads. The route can be ridden in 1-week or 2-week segments.

The mountain biking is fun and challenging, but not overly technical.

The daily mileage averages out to about 35-mile segments which vary based on the riding surface and amount of climbing on any given day. Lizard Head Cycling’s guides provide cyclists with a professional level support that includes: meals, water, shelter and mechanical aid. So the bottom line is if you are a experienced mountain or road biker with decent technical skills, this tour is within your ability level.

A Labor of Love

Hayduke Trail MTB Tour: Testimonials

Read what previous guests on our Hayduke Trail MTB Tour have been saying…

I would like to thank Leslie, Liam and Matt for making Andrea and I feel like we were traveling with family. We only had a week or two with them but strangely find that we miss them. Thank you for putting together a trip that brought something amazing and different each day. 12 days of wow, I’m sure you can’t top that but you did each day. (Y)ou drained us physically but you replenished our mental and spiritual being, Thank you. – Michael

I wanted to let you know what a great job Evan, Roy, and Garrison did during our recent week 2 Hayduke trail ride. The meals – breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, and snacks – were all filling, very tasty, and kept us all energized for each day’s ride. The logistics were very well done – clearly a well oiled machine. The pre-ride checklist I found to be comprehensive such that I felt well prepared both before and during the trip. Erin was very helpful in getting me (the group really) to the ‘starting line’ – thank you Erin! Thanks to you and your team for providing such a positive, fun, and safe experience – well done. – Ryan

Another great Hardcore! Roy and Evan were spectacular throughout the entire trip and are really two fine young men. It was nice seeing some new areas due to the route changes and who knows maybe I will be back for a fourth go at it. Erin was also wonderful to work with throughout the whole process as well. Thanks again! – Chuck

Just back from Hardcore Hayduke…. it was truly an amazing 9 days…. not sure that I really fully envisioned what I was signing up for. Before the trip, I would have said I love to camp and I love to bike…. just not totally sure I love doing them at the same time.

By Day 3, I finally understood that its not all about the bike – the bike is merely the medium through which to experience some of the most spectacular landscapes in the West… probably the US…. and near the top in the world.

I enjoyed the pace and challenge of the Hardcore…. it is truly an epic challenge and adventure.

Roy and Evan were amazing – they formed a great symbiotic duo and provided clear leadership and responsive support throughout the trip – they really thrive off of each other and are inherently knowledgeable and inquisitive about the geology, flora and fauna and history of the area. Truly pleasant, supportive, optimistic, thoughtful, and responsive trip leaders.

One of the many positives to come from the craziness of the last year+ is that as Europe was closed or too much of a hassle to visit, I’ve explored areas of the US that I had never visited…. I’m already looking at my plans for next year and hoping to return for another Lizard Head adventure. – Chuck

Both guides were excellent and complemented each other well. They really developed a rapport with the guests and made everyone feel at ease. Their cooking skills and food selection were excellent. I believe that everyone on the ride had a great time partly due to the professionalism and friendliness of Roy and Evan. – James

First of all, I’m so impressed with your company. I usually am very reticent to sign up for guided trips as I find the guides often are totally burned out and sometimes a bit “rough around the edges” … (b)ut not so with Roy and Chuck.

Roy and Chuck were amazing guides! They worked so hard but still made time to talk with us. I especially liked Roy playing his drum on the edge of Dark Canyon. It still gives me chills as I sat there hearing this “from heaven” type of melody overlooking such beautiful country. Chuck was equally amazing. I loved his en plein air geology lessons and his recital from memory of an Edward Abbey quote under the Milky Way with us all sitting around a fire. It was simply magical.

I am a very slow rider, (b)ut I really like how you organize so slower riders leave sooner and then group up. I never felt any pressure due to the speed of my biking. I enjoyed so much just reveling in the ride versus constant worry about whether I was holding people back. Great work on threading that needle with your clients.

I also liked how the truck was organized. The food was amazingly delicious. I also REALLY appreciate your astute attention to recycling and use of plates and utensils versus throw away stuff.

Bottom line, I would totally recommend your company to anyone. Furthermore, when I plan a trip with a group of friends and want truck support, you will be who I call to arrange that trip and hopefully can secure Chuck and Roy as our guides again.

Take care in all this crazy uncertainty. You all are bright shining lights. – Jody F.

The final week was as wonderful as the first. After the dust has settled and been washed out of my hair and clothes, I find myself looking back at this trip and missing much, even hike/bike up the Henry’s. For me Evan helped make this Hayduke trip a success – always cheerful, helpful and on point. He responds to concerns with care and action. If the opportunity to do another trip with Lizard Head arises, I would be thrilled to see that Evan was one of the guides. Thank you for such an amazing trip, it seems a bit like a dream now but often the best experiences in life feel that way and you know it was special. Hope to see you again in the near future. – Richard

Tim and I want to take this opportunity to tell you how much we enjoyed our trip on the Hayduke Trail. First of all, our three guides were fantastic. Their level of professionalism was top notch. We felt kindness and courtesy from them the entire week. They made us feel cared for and they continued to display attitudes and actions that showed us that we could count on them and trust them.

Thank you for putting together such an awesome route to experience the back country of Utah. The route and the scenery was everything we had hoped for. There were so many times that we had to stop riding just to take in the unbelievable views. We rode the second week of the trip, and our campsites were fantastic. The canyon views on several nights of our camping were incredible.

Thank you once more for providing us with a wonderful experience. – Tim and Pamela

We are back home and had a wonderful adventure riding the 2nd week of the Hayduke trail. Leslie and Evan did a great job, very positive and fun kids to be around. My brother in-law and I had a great time and really appreciate all the hard work (that went into) planning this trip with the food, water, snacks and the beer cooler. – Andy J

The Hayduke was tremendous. I’ve been meaning to let you know how great it was/is. Every aspect exceeded my expectations, especially DeAnne and David. They were professional, kind, courteous, positive, exuberant and, above all seemed to enjoy the trip as much as we did. – James

Li and I joined the ride the last 5 days, and we had more fun than we could possibly have imagined! The ride (and the weather) were enormously challenging, but we were helped greatly by the kindness and companionship of our fellow riders and guides. Thank you all for making the trip so wonderfully memorable for us! – Chris

Just wanted to let you know I had a blast and totally regret not signing up for the full 2 weeks. Your guides are incredible as well as the entire rest of the operation. I want to commend you on a fabulous organized trip. Other than the scenery, the organization is my top conversation I have with other people when asked about the tour. – Paul S.

How The Hayduke Trail MTB Tour Works

The Hayduke Trail MTB Tour is supported by a burly 4×4 pickup that carries water, personal gear, an outdoor kitchen, coolers of food (and beer), tents, spare parts, spare bikes, shade and camp chairs. It is the mothership that meets us in camp. Riders wake in the morning to the echo of the coffee call off the canyon walls, followed by a hearty breakfast of eggs, bacon, muesli, fruit, nuts, yogurt, etc. Food is essential and Lizard Head Cycling takes care to deliver high quality ingredients. After breakfast riders pack a lunch and set off on the trail. One guide rides and the other drives the truck. Lunch is enjoyed along the trail with big views of the encompassing back of beyond terrain. When possible the mother ship meets the riders for lunch to offer a resupply.

In the late afternoon we roll into camp and once again meet the support vehicle. At this point before setting up camp the guides and guests often enjoy a celebratory beer. The guides then set up the outdoor kitchen, start appetizers and prepare dinner, while our guests set up their tents and clean their bicycles for the next day. Dinner is enjoyed around the campfire as the stars appear above in the pitch black sky. Life is good! 😀

Tour Status Notes: NO STATUS = Date Set, no riders have signed up. TOUR OPENED = Tour Opened, rider minimums not met. TOUR A GO! = Tour is Go, rider minimums met. SOLD OUT = Tour Full, rider maximums met.

Why Should you Sign-Up Now and OPEN a Tour Date?
This is the proverbial chicken and the egg conundrum! We need our cyclists to first commit to the date that works for them so that we can commit to that date.

For starters, when you OPEN a date you get to pick your preferred departure date, and there is no penalty if the tour does not run. Once you pick your tour date, Lizard Head closes nearby dates and funnels all additional riders to your chosen date until the tour meets its 6 rider minimum.

BONUS: As an added bonus, we can also hold a spot for you on another tour date of your choosing. There is no fee to switch to another tour date.

In conclusion, if you want a tour to run, we need you to sign up and not wait for others to do the same! Waiting for others may mean that a tour date takes longer or does not confirm. Just Do It! Once a few riders jump into the proverbial waters, others will follow!

Private Groups and Tour Length: The Hayduke Trail tour can be booked as a private tour with 9 riders or the equivalent thereof. If your riders can “crush it”, full tour length can be reduced from 12 to 9 days by increasing the daily mileage from the current 30 to 40-miles per day to 50 to 60-miles ridden per day.

The Weather: The months of May and September & early October are the sweet spots in this extreme landscape. During these months if there are no clouds, expect average high temperatures in the lower desert (below 6,000-feet) in low to mid 80’s and in the mountains (above 8,000-feet) expect highs in the upper 70’s. During its epic journey the Hayduke MTB tour crosses both rugged canyon country and two mountain ranges with elevations peaking out at 10,000-feet. So the Hayduke is not simply a desert tour!

General Tour & Cancellation Policies

Travel Insurance

If you have not already, now would be a great time to consider adding travel insurance to your tour. You are welcome to use any travel insurance company you would like. We recommend Generali/Trip Mate.

Generally, if contracting COVID causes clients to cancel or interrupt their tour, trip insurance companies would treat it as any other illness as long as it is contracted after the insurance was purchased. Please check your individual plan documentation for details. Please note that quarantine is usually only covered if clients are actually sick with COVID. If a state requires quarantine upon arrival because of standardized state law, coverage is generally not covered. Again, check your individual plan documentation for details.
