Wire Mesa Trail

Wire Mesa Trail

Utah

Wire Mesa Trail offers 7.4 miles of single-track terrain managed by the Bureau of Land Management in southwestern Utah. The looped trail traverses a mix of packed dirt and slick rock, winding through sandstone formations and juniper-pinion pine forests. Mountain bikers will find a flowing route rated beginner to intermediate, with optional difficulty splits at three points along the loop. Hikers and wildlife enthusiasts can also use the trail, and the elevated terrain provides exceptional photography opportunities with views of Zion National Park.

As BLM land, dispersed camping is permitted in the surrounding area, allowing visitors to establish primitive campsites away from developed facilities. No designated campgrounds exist on-site, so pack water and practice Leave No Trace principles. Access roads are typically suitable for most vehicles in dry conditions, though high-clearance may be advisable after weather events.

Spring and fall offer the most comfortable temperatures for extended outings, while summer brings intense heat to this desert landscape. Winter riding is possible but check conditions, as trails can become slick when wet or icy.
