Coney Island is a short mountain biking ride on Bureau of Land Management land in the Moab Field Office, about a tenth of a mile from the start and roughly 26 feet of elevation gain on an out-and-back route that takes you from 5,475 feet to 5,510 feet. The Bureau of Land Management manages the land. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show May highs around 72°F and October highs around 65°F, while July averages about 91°F and winter brings highs near 37°F with a few snowy days each month. The Plateau Overlook Trail and the Big Lonely Trail are both about half a mile away. Lone Mesa Group Sites is about 0.9 miles off for camping, and Monitor and Merrimac Buttes offers climbing about 4.3 miles away.
