Bike your Park!

September 29, 2018 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Bike in the Arkansas Headwaters Recreation Area (AHRA) State Park, and learn about the Stage & Rail Trail. This family friendly event will explore a portion of the Canon City to Leadville stage road, built in the 1860’s through the 1880’s, which travels up the river valley and passes through the Hayden Meadows Recreation Site, a part of AHRA. AHRA recently entered into a management agreement with the city of Aurora, who owns the old Hayden Ranch. Through this agreement with Aurora, AHRA will manage recreation on this land. Bike your Park celebrates this new opportunity to hike and bike through river meadows and sagebrush uplands, along old ranch roads, a portion of the historic coast-to-coast dirt highway built for the earliest automobiles, and a portion of the old stage road. It is a five-mile, easy-to-moderate route sure to please on a September morning. GARNA’s Friends of Fourmile chapter representative, Alan Robinson will provide information about the old stage route and its history.

This event is free but registration is required. Please email info@garna.org and let us know you’re coming, how many you’ll bring, and if you need a bike rental or shuttle help.
