Matthew Winters is a great starting point for a number of different trails, including Dakota Ridge, Red Rocks, Morrison Slide, and more. The Red Rocks trail runs past some amazing rock outcroppings and the Dakota Ridge trail climbs up and then runs along the Hogback, offering great views of Denver and the Front Range. Red Rocks is a fairly easy hike and Dakota Ridge is more challenging.
From I-70 and Hertitage road go south .5 miles Parking lot is on the west side of the road.
