Not one for the faint hearted, the Fossil Valley Trail's ups and downs make it a challenging option on a run. However, the reward for any hard ascent is a fun descent, so it's always worth it. It ends at the beautiful Cattail Pond, where it joins the appropriately named Cattail Pond Trail.

Running

Really nice trail for amateurs, good for both running and walks(if you're planning to go for running, make sure to get ankle support runners(I can rec Hoka Arahi, my pair is from rununited.com but you can probably just order online too) since there are a lot of uneven ground at some points).
