Built by riders
For the love
of dirt.
NoCo MTB Fest is Northern Colorado's premier mountain bike festival, three days of singletrack, sponsors, food, music, and trail community set against Horsetooth Reservoir. It's also a fundraiser for the Overland Mountain Bike Association, the volunteer-run nonprofit that's been building and maintaining trails across Northern Colorado since the early days of mountain biking on the Front Range.
Why this festival
Three days. 75+ miles. One basecamp.
Accessible directly from the festival grounds. The Specialized rep couldn't name another event in the country with this kind of access outside Bentonville.
Wake up at basecamp, roll out of your tent, and ride straight onto 75+ miles of singletrack.
Friday through Sunday at Inlet Bay Campground on Horsetooth Reservoir.
Every dollar funds trail construction, re-routes, and trail advocacy across Northern Colorado.
Where the dollars go
Trails, education, advocacy
Every dollar that comes through the festival door goes back into the dirt. New trail construction at Horsetooth and Lory, re-routes that fix erosion problems, signage, tools, and the occasional pizza for our volunteer trail crews.
It also funds youth mountain biking programs, skills clinics for new riders, and advocacy work with land managers to keep trails open and growing.
Buy a pass, build a trail.
The setting
Inlet Bay Campground, Horsetooth Reservoir
Tucked into the foothills west of Fort Collins, Inlet Bay sits in the middle of one of the most concentrated mountain bike trail networks in the country. 75+ miles of singletrack, accessible directly from the campground. Hogback ridges, ponderosa pines, technical descents, and views that stop you mid-pedal.
Come ride with us.
Three days. 75+ miles of singletrack. One unforgettable weekend.
