Estes Park to Lyons

Feb 3

Just one big, beautiful day! Head over to Thompson Canyon via Masonville and Glen Haven. After climbing up to Estes Park via Drake, you descend into town. Instead of heading back down Thompson Canyon, take Highway 36 down into Lyons before heading back via Hygiene.

The Route

The Stats:
**Distance:** 112 miles
**Climbing:** 7200 feet

**Notes:** There are a few miles on Highway 36 near Estes Park that don’t have a shoulder. Be aware of inattentive drivers. The rest of the Highway 36 has a massive shoulder.
**Refills:** The Dam Store, Kind Coffee (Estes Park), The Stone Cup (Lyons), The Mountain Fountain (Hygiene)
**Tires:** We like the WTB Exposure as a tubeless option.
