7-Day Colorado Backcountry Discovery Route





The Colorado Backcountry Discovery Route (COBDR) is known around that world as one of the best adventure motorcycle routes in North America. This prestigious ride traverses our great state from South to North, and includes breathtaking high mountain passes, historic abandoned mining villages, and accommodations in some of Colorado’s most famous mountain towns.
Our weeklong ride will depart from four-corners (Colorado’s southern-most point) and end in Steamboat Springs, CO. You have the option of conquering this incredible route individually, with the aid of one of our pre-programmed GPS units.
The COBDR route was created by Backcountry Discovery Routes, a non-profit organization engaged in the establishment and preservation of off-highway routes for adventure and dual-sport motorcyclists. They know and understand that off-highway motorcycling provides an unparalleled experience for adventure-riders. But that experience comes with the responsibility to preserve and maintain our public lands and open spaces.

This route is primarily off-road, and covers rocky, steep terrain that can be challenging for some riders on full sized ADV bikes, but is less challenging on street-legal enduro bikes like our Husqvarna 501s (available for rent).
