The Conejos River Trail is a 3.7-mile out-and-back hike located in Colorado near the town of Colorado. Managed by the Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre, and Gunnison National Forest's Grand Valley Ranger District, this trail offers an accessible outing with minimal elevation gain of just 103 feet. The route follows the Conejos River, providing scenic riparian views along the water corridor. With its modest distance and gentle elevation profile, this trail is suitable for hikers of varying skill levels, including families and those seeking a more leisurely pace. The out-and-back format allows you to adjust your experience by turning around at any point along the river.
