5280 Magazine’s 50 best hikes in Colorado (September 2024), mapped. Every trail is Class 3 or easier in peak season — peakbags, alpine lakes, waterfalls, wildflowers, aspen, wildlife, red-rock canyons, and the dunes.
Pins mark the trailhead and are colored by difficulty:
Tap a pin or card for the note, filter by category or difficulty, and hit Directions to route to the trailhead. Trailhead pins are approximate — always check current conditions, permits, and timed-entry rules (many Rocky Mountain National Park hikes need a reservation) before you go.
