Vail Pass Path

Vail Pass Path is a scenic 18.5-mile trail that connects the towns of Vail and Breckenridge, originally built for transportation purposes in the late 20th century. It winds through the picturesque Rockies, offering stunning alpine vistas, dense forests, and opportunities for wildlife sightings, with various access points along the route. A popular choice for biking and hiking, the path is best explored during the warmer months, though winter brings opportunities for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. The trail is well-marked, and you can enjoy the nearby river and mountain views that change dramatically with the seasons.
