This is the perfect hike to bring families and people visiting Colorado. It’s quick, easy and the views are absolutely incredible. Crystal clear water surrounded by trees with beautiful Breckenridge ski slopes in the background.
I’ve always done this hike from nearby hotels like Beaver Run Resort or Gravity Haus – but you can also start at the Snowflake lift trailhead. If you want to add a few miles go up Peak Nine Service Road for extra views and elevation!
