The city is known as a mountain-biking haven, with challenging routes that have names like Chutes & Ladders, and Zippity Do Da. Fruita is the trailhead for the Kokopelli, the 142-mile trail. Residents who enjoy fishing, boating, waterskiing or jet skiing can drive 5 miles to Highline Lake State Park. Another popular attraction is the Imondi Wake Zone wakeboarding park.
