Sapphire Point Overlook is a frequented destination by hikers and tourists, as the trail to the official overlook is easy to access.
You can see the Gore and Tenmile mountain ranges looming behind Lake Dillon Reservoir from this overlook area. The Dillon Creek Reservoir Recpath crosses by the overlook trail in the Sapphire Point Trail parking lot, making Sapphire Point Trail popular as both a standalone trail and an addition to another trail or bigger loop.
