Lift-served park will feature beginner through advanced trails off Littlecat Express

HUNTSVILLE, Utah — Snowbasin Resort plans to break ground on a new lift-served bike park in summer 2026, expanding the resort’s year-round recreation offerings with trails designed for riders of all skill levels.

The bike park will be accessible via the Littlecat Express lift and launch with four to five trails, with room for future expansion in subsequent seasons. Trail design will accommodate a range of abilities, from beginner-friendly routes featuring gentle terrain with dirt berms and wooden skill features to intermediate and advanced flow trails incorporating multiple berms, tabletops, and technical wooden elements.

The development represents a significant addition to Snowbasin’s summer operations. Currently ranked the No. 1 ski resort in North America for winter sports, the resort has been expanding its warm-weather activities to create a true four-season mountain destination.

“It’s an exciting milestone for Snowbasin’s summer recreation,” said Davy Ratchford, general manager at Snowbasin Resort.

The bike park project comes as part of a broader partnership with SCOTT Sports, which will serve as the resort’s official helmet and eyewear partner. SCOTT bike rentals will be available at the Grizzly Center starting in 2027.

Construction is scheduled to begin next summer, with the park opening to riders once trails are complete. The resort has not yet announced specific opening dates or pricing for bike park access.
