This trail is 7 miles one way. We only walked a small portion of it due to time constraints and the late hour of the day and were not equipped to go further. We also were with our two dogs. The section we were on is beautiful! Part of Roosevelt National Forest about 1 hour from Fort Collins up State highway 14. Good amount of free parking at trail head. Dogs must be on leash at all times. No fees. Will be back when better equipped for a long hike!
