Trail Overview

This is a loop that features an optional hike to the very top of Sand Mountain at 10,863 feet. It's worth the extra effort. You'll love the panoramic views. There are some nice spots to camp along the trail, but you may just want to stay at Steamboat Lake State Park. Be sure to make a reservation if you plan on staying there. Trail is open July 1 to December 1.
