Foothills Trail
A 13-mile, point-to-point singletrack that threads Pineridge, Maxwell and Reservoir Ridge natural areas, the Foothills Trail serves up exposed ridgelines, rocky tread and sweeping views of Horsetooth Reservoir and Fort Collins. Technical enough to keep experienced riders honest, it also links to shorter loops and reservoir access — but expect sun, wind and limited services along the way.
