Why We Love It: This trail offers a 3.2-mile loop, or you can follow it for a longer out-and-back hike or run. Along the way, take in views of meadows, pines, and lakes.

Where to refuel afterwards: Down some pints and salads, sandwiches, or even ribs at Alpine Beer Company on 2351 Alpine Boulevard—right on the way home.
