Trail Overview

Nellie Creek Road is a rough and extremely narrow road normally used to access the Uncompahgre Peak Trailhead. There are numerous waterfalls and creek crossings. There are a few dispersed camping sites suitable for tent or car camping, but not larger setups. A pit toilet is available at both the beginning and end of the road. It can be extremely busy with less capable vehicles during the 14'er climbing season.
