This 4-mile lollipop loop trail winds through a scenic landscape with minimal elevation gain, making it accessible for most runners. The path is marked with plenty of cairns to help navigate its fun, rocky sections. Along the way, you'll pass by serene ponds, and enjoy the mix of scrub oak pine and cottonwood trees that provide a diverse habitat for local wildlife. Keep an eye out for these animals, as well as the stunning views of Pikes Peak that punctuate the trail.

Wildflowers and plenty of trees with lizards, owls and many birds.
