Get ready to ride the trails and embrace the thrill of mountain biking in an exciting adventure designed for beginner riders! Whether you’re just starting out or looking to level up your skills, this camp is all about building confidence, mastering technique, and exploring Telluride’s stunning terrain.

We’ll kick things off with the fundamentals—trail safety, basic bike maintenance, and getting comfortable on a variety of surfaces. As you gain experience, we’ll progress to downhill stretches and winding single-track routes, all while keeping the focus on fun and skill-building. You’ll ride through a mix of challenging and beautiful environments, and by the end, you’ll feel like a pro.

Come ride with us, as we explore some of the best trails Telluride has to offer and help you grow into a confident, capable mountain biker!

Telluride Academy's Overnight Policy

Our talented instructors work hard to combat student homesickness on overnight programs. For many students, this experience might be their first time camping or away from home! In the days leading up to the overnight(s), the instructors have positive conversations with the groups to get them excited and prepared for their overnight adventures. This dynamic gets interrupted when a student is picked up early from their overnight. For this reason, we can not accommodate early pick-ups, unless in the case of an emergency. If your child does not want to attend the overnight, or if you have prior commitments that require early pick-up accommodations, we ask that you consider choosing a day program instead. Please call our office with any questions or concerns.
