About
The Burlingame Connector is a short mountain biking trail in Aspen, Colorado, serving as a link between the Burlingame subdivision and the Rio Grande Trail. The route spans approximately 0.5 to 0.6 miles and sits at an elevation of 7,786 feet. It is generally classified as difficult or intermediate, featuring a wide, well-constructed dirt path carved into a steep hillside. Riders encounter large boulders, tight turns, and blind corners that require speed management. The trail provides access to the Stein Trail and connects to longer loops toward Sunnyside Trail and Buttermilk Connector. It is open for hiking, running, and biking, and is dog-friendly. Parking is available near the trailhead. The typical season runs from April through October, though conditions depend on snow and maintenance.
