With an altitude of 1,849 ft and located between
two notoriously flat wetlands Cheyenne Bottoms to the north and Quivira
National Wildlife Refuge to the south, you wouldn't expect Great Bend
to have much for mountain bike trails. Well you would be wrong,
thanks to the efforts of Golden Belt Bicycle Company, volunteers and
CKMBC members, G.B. offers 15 miles or more of exciting singletrack.
Three different locations offer fat tire fans a little variety, the
Arkansas River Trails, Barton County (dry) lake trails, and the
old forest trail. Follow the link below for more informaiton
on Barton County trails.
