What is the best hike you've ever been on in Colorado? We live in Colorado Springs but we're willing to drive a few hours if the hiking is worth it .Probably our favorite hike was up to Lake Isabelle in the Brainerd Lake Rec Area near Ward, because of the wild flowers and beautiful lake. Thanks for any suggestions.
Best Hike in Colorado - front range area?
I think there are too many good ones to pick a best one! Since you live in Colorado Springs, my favorite one over there is the hike to St. Mary's Falls. (See the link in the source box for info. about St. Mary's Falls.)
Last weekend I hiked up to Lost Lake which is near, (but not inside), the Indian Peaks Wilderness. There were several waterfalls along the way and the lake itself was very nice too. If you're interested, the directions are: from Nederland, go south on highway 119 and turn right on County Road 130. Go through the town of Eldora and shortly after that, the road will turn to dirt. Keep going for a short ways until you reach the intersection for the "Hessie" and "4th of July" trailheads. Park there and take the left fork to the Hessie trailhead. Since this is just outside of the Indian Peaks Wilderness, you don't have to pay a fee to hike there. Have fun :-).
