Activities
Mountain Biking
The Front Range Trailhead offers access to approximately 10 miles of mixed-use non-motorized trails, and is particularly popular among mountain bikers. Many trails in the area are unofficial, social trails, so many intersections are unsigned and it is easy to become disoriented. It is possible to connect this system of trails with those at West Magnolia Trailhead by riding a short segment of Magnolia Road west to Colorado Highway 72/119.Difficulty Level: | Intermediate to Difficult |
