Trail Overview

Start this trail by climbing through Lost Dog, a visually unique area that has seen beetle kill, extreme winds, and forest fires. Six miles in the trail changes to a narrow, winding climb to the top of Farwell Mountain. This is a fun area for OHVs and dirt bikes, all of which can take Diamond Park Trail north to make the trail a loop through Big Red Park and back to Hahns Peak. This trail is open July through December, depending on snow.

Did this trail alone, didn’t see a single person on the trail. It just snowed yesterday so some sections have a few inches of snow on the trail still but it’s patchy, nothing a good all terrain tire couldn’t take. Super fun trail, some pretty steep grade inclines. Great trail overall!!

A few overhanging trees on the west side of Farwell mountain that could cause problems with tall 4x4s or roof racks. East side of Farwell mountain has the majority of the hazards and technical parts of the trail.
