Zen Trail is a short, hard mountain biking route on State Trust Lands Tonaquint Block in southern Utah, managed by the State Land Board. The trail is about half a mile long and rises roughly 136 feet from a low point of 3,241 feet to a high of 3,398 feet, making it an out-and-back ride of about a mile. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in St. George show April highs around 75°F and October highs near 79°F, while July averages about 102°F and January lows drop to around 28°F. Zen Wall, a climbing area, sits just 0.1 mile away, and Big Boy Area and Upper Jones Valley are both within a mile. Red Bluff Canyon, a hike, is about a mile off.
