Hogback Nature Trail

The Hogback Nature Trail is a 1.5 mile loop.  The trail winds through sandstone formations and then climbs up the rocky Hogback Ridge that forms the park’s northern boundary. As the trail follows the top of the ridge, majestic views of the Spanish Peaks, Sangre de Cristo and Wet Mountain Ranges can be enjoyed. Along the two-mile trail, marker posts have been installed to accompany a self-guided brochure containing information about the area’s plant and animal life and its history. The brochures are complimentary and  are available at the trailhead.
