Ever wanted to try mountain biking but were a little too nervous to give it a shot? Like a lot of outdoor sports, mountain biking can be difficult to try. CLIMB Works has solved the common concerns – Where do I go? What if I don’t have a bike? Isn’t this for experts only? – that keep most people from ever giving it a chance.
EL REGIS TRAIL“El Regis” is an intermediate two-mile loop with the first 1/3 uphill, second 1/3 smooth flow trail, and last 1/3 downhill. The loop can be as easy or as technical as you want to make it.
BEGINNERSOur goal here at CLIMB Works is to push you a little out of your comfort zone at your own pace. Because of the mountain terrain, our trail is considered an intermediate trail and can be intimidating for first-timers. If you’re up for the challenge, our bike experts will be there to give you pointers and help you to have an incredible first experience.
If you feel comfortable riding a bike, have decent coordination, and are ready to sweat then you have what it takes to mountain bike with us. The trial is a one-way loop, so you’ll never have to worry about oncoming traffic. You can relax, go at your own pace, and have some fun.
EXPERTSIf you’re an experience rider, don’t think that since we love introducing beginners to mountain biking that this trail isn’t for you. Our world-class designed flow trail packed with technical options – rollers, berms, logs, bridges, and incredible wood features – will give you the exciting single track you are looking for.
CAN I RENT A BIKE?Absolutely! CLIMB Works offers high-end Specialized mountain bikes that provide increased stability and control. Hardtail and full-suspension options available. Children ages 12 and up have youth bikes available. Because all our rentals are inspected before and after being ridden, we guarantee you a bike in great condition. Also, we’ve simplified our gear controls so newcomer and expert alike can shift gears easily making the experience more enjoyable.
CAN I BRING MY OWN BIKE?You certainly can! Road, hybrid or “townie” bikes are strongly discouraged as they do not provide adequate traction and control the trail necessitates.
OUR FLAGSHIP FEATUREThis wooden, roller-coaster-esque structure fittingly named “The Curliest” is the pride and joy of El Regis Trail. Tucked in the heart of the Smokies, built over a stream, and designed to be pleasing unto the eyes as well as the wheels, The Curliest can be ridden as many times as you’d like.
CAN ANYONE DO IT?The answer to that is yes. While experts can push themselves higher and higher, beginners can take it as slow as they’d like. If you feel comfortable riding a bike on a sidewalk, you can feel comfortable riding on The Curliest.
