Hiking

Culebra Peak is a beautiful mountain, 14,047 ft high in the Sangre de Cristo Wilderness. From the summit you can see Red Mountain, and have a clear view of the expanse of the wilderness area. This is the only privately owned 14-er mountain in the United States, located in Cielo Vista Ranch, and the fee to hike this trail is $150. The ranch allows hikers between January to July. If you wish to go, you can book your ticket here: cielo-vista-ranch.info/product/hiking

Important Tip: Use 14ers.com for driving directions—not AllTrails! AllTrails will take you to the wrong gate.

This hike was absolutely amazing. The views were stunning, and wildflowers were everywhere. Walking across open tundra without a defined trail felt wrong. The ranch was super welcoming—make sure to arrive by 6 a.m. to avoid missing your hike.

The road up to the upper parking lot wasn’t too bad overall, but the final descent into the parking area is steep and rocky, with medium to large rocks—so be prepared.
