The hike can include sections in an authorized dog run area so your furry friend can run free and meet other dogs!
Awesome trail! You get a variety of different terrains and an awesome view of Colorado Springs and Pikes Peak. took us about 2.5 hours and went closer to 4 miles according to Apple watch. the trail is a little muddy at times and there were a couple trees to climb over but it was great overall!! our small dogs did well too

Lot of fun. We took forever because I have toddlers. But they did really well on the trail. Stopped and turned around when one sat on a cactus. We’ll be back.
