Swope Park Hiking - Kansas City
We were finally able to get out and hike the Rancho Deluxe Trail in Swope Park this weekend. I believe the official name is “Swope Park Mountain Bike Trail”, but there are two different loops: Woodchuck Run (5+ miles) & Rancho Deluxe (Around 4.5 miles). If you’re a hiker, keep your eyes and ears open for oncoming bikers. This is definitely one of the more scenic trails we’ve completed in the Kansas City area and hope to make it back out again this summer. The trail offers a good mix of rocky terrain and slight elevation gain. Vegetation is finally starting to get green so it’s an awesome time to check out this hike.

SWOPE BIKE PARK IS ON FIRE!! | KANSAS CITY MOUNTAIN BIKING
Holy smokes, with a title like that this video better be good, right?
Welcome back to Horns High Mountain Biking, I hope you've had a great ride.
Here's a link to the trail I rode:
In this video I'm riding Swope Bike Park right after they did a prescribed burn on the west section of Wudchuk Run.
Wudchuk is already one of my favorite trails not only for it's relentless rock sections but its views. But in this video I'm getting to experience right after they did a prescribed burn.
This is one of those unique rides in my life that make me appreciate how much mountain bikes have enriched my life.
If you were to ask me for an must-experience ride in Kansas City it would be Wudchuk Run at sunset. There's nothing quite like it. Awesome trail, awesome view, it's a very moving trail.
So until you're able to experience it for yourself, enjoy this video and I'll catch you on the next ride.
In the comments below, let me know what you've been doing for spring training and if you have any advice for staying in shape over the winter.
And thank you for watching, subscribing and riding your bike. Ride on brothers and sisters. Ride on.
