THE BEST MOUNTAIN BIKE TOURS IN SAYULITA? – THE MALPASO TRAILS

Ride the Malpaso Trail with our avid tour guides and experience remote, breathtaking climbs, cool tranquil slopes and stunning views of Sayulita. This tour is rated one of the best in the area, meaning you’re sure to finish your day filled with high vibes, new friends and momentous memories. See some snaps taken from this tour just below!

Malpaso Singletracks

The Malpaso Singletrack Mountain Bike Trails near Sayulita are some of the first trails in Mexico specifically designed and built for mountain biking. 

Proudly built by WildMex, they offer a wide range of mountain biking, suitable for the adventurous beginner through to advanced riders. The trails take you through the lush jungle in the area between Sayulita and San Pancho, with rides varying from mellow singletrack to challenging and fast routes with berms, steep climbs and rock gardens.

The area in which the mountain bike trails pass through is majority privately owned. The owners are under no obligation to let us ride on their property, however, in order to support the local community, they provide access under certain regulations, with the goal of preserving the environment and ensuring no accidents happen on their property. WildMex is fortunate enough to have permission to maintain and guide trips on the existing trails in the Malpaso area.

For this reason, WildMex offers guided mountain biking tours but is now unable to offer unguided mountain bike rentals to be ridden in the Malpaso trail system. 

Please help the local riding community and the Malpaso landowners to keep a friendly relationship, and if you are visiting our area and would like to ride the Malpaso Trails, do so with an authorized company.

Our mountain bike tours in Sayulita and our rentals are entirely non-profit – with 100% of our proceeds going towards maintaining existing trails and building new ones so the community and its visitors can enjoy access to more multi-use trails in the Sayulita, San Pancho and Punta Mita area. We are currently working towards developing a further MTB trail network in the Monkey Mountain area (read more below)

Our Trail Building Project – UpLeveling your Mountain Bike experience in Sayulita

WildMex has proudly developed some of the first trails in Mexico specifically designed and sustainably built for mountain biking. The Malpaso trails now provide around a day’s worth of riding, but we don’t want to stop there! We are keen to continue building so that the community and its visitors can enjoy access to more multi-use trails in the Sayulita, San Pancho and Punta Mita area.

That is why WildMex is now beginning a new trail building project in the Monkey Mountain area between Sayulita and Punta de Mita. We are working with local riders to build these trails, and our intention is that they will benefit the entire community as they will be multi-use, creating options for hiking and bird watching as well as mountain biking.

WildMex is committed to continuing to develop mountain biking in Sayulita and the surrounding area for the local community. Our existing trails have already opened up the sport to many local people. All our tours are guided by local mountain bike riders who helped build the trails, and all proceeds from the tours go towards cleaning and maintaining our existing trails, and developing the new trail network – our tours and rentals are 100% non-profit.

Keep checking back here to keep up to date on our new trail project!
