Part of the Alien Run Trail System.

Outer Limits is a 6.7-mile moderate loop within the Alien Run Trail System and is a popular mountain bike ride in the Four Corners area. This loop is accessed from the main Alien Run loop and is slightly more difficult terrain. From Outer Limits, you can re-access the main Alien Run loop and eventually meet back with the parking area.

The three stacked loops of Alien Run offer a variety of riding for everyone. Trails flow through smooth dirt arroyos, traverse along slickrock cliffs, and session through natural technical features.
