A mountain bike experience for Girl Scouts

Explore our beautiful mountain bike trails while learning biking basics and trail safety.

Girls in Gear is an exclusive mountain biking program built for Girl Scouts and created with input from industry leaders. Designed for beginner and intermediate riders, this program offers an experience that builds resilience, problem solving skills, and risk taking all while having fun in the great outdoors. 
With the help of high-end mountain bikes, Girl Scouts explore our professional 2.1 mile trail through the rolling prairie and woods at Camp Elk River, near Zimmerman, Minnesota. The program is led by trained staff, who offer a range of opportunities, including half-day programs and multi-day overnight camps.  
Join us for an unforgettable experience that combines adventure, learning, and so much more! 
 
Registration opens soon.
