Adjacent to I-25, the 160-acre property has native chokecherry and wild plum shrubs along an intermittent stream. The trail winds up into Gambel oak shrubland and onto a grassland plain with views of Pikes Peak and the Colorado Front Range. The trail skirts rocky caprock on the northern spur. A five-acre off-leash dog area is west of the main trail head. There is a porta-potty and picnic area at the trailhead.<br />
<br />
The trail can be ridden either direction.<br />
<br />
At the scenic overlook, leave your bike at the horse tether and walk 100 yards or so to the rocky outcropping.
Take I-25 to exit 190, the parking lot and trailhead on the east side of the highway.<br /><br /><br /><br />If you are headed south on I-25, go left on the exit ramp and loop around under the highway.<br /><br />If you are headed north on I-25, just follow the exit into the parking lot.
