A fantastic 5.8 mile loop with some long technical downhill singletrack sections that will surely thrill intermediate to advanced riders. It offers fabulous views of Colorado National Monument and some interesting rock formations just off the trail. From Gand Junction, travel west on Grand Avenue, which turns into Highway 340. Cross over two the bridge and turn left onto Monument Road (follow the signs to Colorado National Monument). Go about a mile and a half and there is a gravel parking lot on the left marked by a BLM sign for the Tabeguache Trail.
