Many people think that the best way to enjoy snowy weather is to stay at home and sit by the fireplace. For most adventure seekers though, conquering the backcountry trails and speeding through the woods with a snowmobile is the better option.
On The Trail Rentals is situated at Winding River Resort and is about 3 miles away from the Town of Grand Lake. It is the premier destination for guided snowmobile tours, ATV and UTV rentals, and the like. Everyone gets to enjoy the 130 miles of scenic trails and powdery snow. Snowmobile season is between late November through March but still depends on the overall weather condition.
