Bike "Trick or Treats" at Lake Chelan

Lake Chelan’s Echo Valley Trail system (9 miles out of town) serves up a real treat and is a blast for riding. A map of the area is located here at this link http://www.uncletimstoys.com/echo_trails.htm.
If you’re riding with a group that has mixed skills and abilities you won’t want to pass this opportunity up. We stayed at a condo at Lake Chelan Shores and drove up to go ride every day. We found out “Uncle Tim's Toys” has some awesome up-to-date cabins, each very private, well appointed, wood stove, stellar views, private hot tub, and smack in the middle of some great trails.

My wife loved the area (about 3,500’ to 4,000’ elevation), the riding, open and panoramic views, and the winding fast downhill rewards. The hills are not so steep to be overwhelming or a discouragement. Elevation gains are mostly gradual.

At the end of your ride, check out Uncle Tim’s for your favorite beverage and some good conversation. Tim is a fun character. (He rents full suspension bikes there too.)

Oh, the wine touring and tasting of the some 15 or so wineries was fun as well.
