Hahn's Peak

Trail Overview

Hahn's Peak Trail is a challenging yet rewarding single track that takes you 1,100 feet up to the top of Hahn's Peak where there is a fire lookout tower and 360-degree views of the whole mountain range and Steamboat Lake. The first part of the trail has some intermediate challenges such as embedded big boulders and roots on a narrow dirt trail as it starts to zig-zag up a mountainside in a pine tree forest. There are switchbacks, side-hilling, and big sweeping turns before you get up to the saddle and you start to get killer views as you pop out of the trees. Many riders will end their ride at the saddle because the last section of the trail is all scree on a steep slope, but it will take you to the summit with the lookout tower. The scree is made of very small loose rocks and it's very hard to find traction. You will likely see hikers on this trail making their way to the summit.
