About
The Ewok Village North Cutoff is a 0.7-mile hiking and mountain biking trail in Montrose, Colorado, located on the Western Slope. It serves as a shortcut connecting to the main Ewok Village trail, situated approximately 2.6 miles north of the Ewok Village and Tabeguache Trail junction. The trail begins at a junction marked by a Carsonite BLM sign, though the path itself is not labeled. The route features a steep downhill descent with loose dirt and rocky sections, leading back toward Piney Creek. The trailhead offers parking and is open year-round. While some sources classify the difficulty as difficult due to the steepness, others note it as easy for those accustomed to the terrain. The trail is multi-use and allows motorcycles.
