about 2.5 miles from the winter parking lot (free parking). walk on mostly shaded tree lined trail to a lake with GORGEOUS views of the mountains. You can take the road back and I think it is a little quicker. Stop in the cute little town of Nederland on your way there and/or way back, New Moon Bakery has yummy CBD infused drink that I like to get before hiking, and yummy baked goods!
