WHERE TO RIDE

Although there are plenty of 4×4 trails in the area (many of which lead to the base of Rabbit Ears Peak to the east), there’s a gorgeous, 4-mile-long road that stretches from Dumont Lake to the Rabbit Ears, the summit rock formation from which the pass gets its name.

Take in gorgeous views of the Continental Divide, Rabbit Ears Peak, rivers, meadows, and more while you explore this relatively relaxed RZR trail system. In addition to RZR, visitors can bike, camp, fish, and hike in the summertime and snowmobile, cross-country ski and snowshoe in the winter.
