Tips

The Medano Pass is a primative road that takes you up and across the Great Sand Dunes National Preserve. Due to its sandy surface, creek crossings, rocky sections and steep ascents and descents, it's only suitable for four wheel drive vehicles. The top of the pass gives access to the Medano Lake Trail, as well as the rough Hudson Ditch Road.
