Cerros del Abrigo Loop is a 7.2-mile loop around an extinct lava dome. There are great views, especially on the east side of the hike. The National Park Service recommends hiking counterclockwise, but either way is fine. From the viewpoints, take a moment to look down on the grassland below and scan the area for animals like elk, which can be seen pretty much year-round.
