Of all the lakes you'll pass while riding Snowy Range Road, Lake Marie is the prettiest and most accessible from the road. This sort of scenery is exactly the reason for riding this road.

Elk Mountain Trail leads you to Elk Mountain at 7,700 feet. At 2 miles in length, this trail is short and climbs steadily and then steeply at the end for the summit push. From the top, you can enjoy fantastic views of the neighboring peaks and the lush Arapaho Forest surrounding you.

Pretty Barber Lake is a great roadside destination, but it also makes a decision point (or starting place) for runners, as you can choose from several routes here. One fun option is to power up the single- and double-track of the Barber Lake Trail — with consistent elevation gain that will have your thighs burning — then loop around and freewheel it on the descent along Barber Lake Road.

Pretty Barber Lake sits at the juncture of the trail and the road of the same name. This is a great place to start or end a hike, or to piece together a loop between the Barber Lake Trail and Barber Lake Road. This area is also surprisingly good for spotting butterflies and moths. Keep an eye out for unusual species including the hoary anglewing and the green comma.

If you're looking for a quiet, secluded trail with a pretty, lakeside destination, this is it. Watch for challenging trail conditions, though: You're likely to face occasional downed trees and muddy stretches of trail, so trail running shoes with aggressive traction, and ankles of steel, are useful here. If you continue hiking past the lake, this trail links into the much longer Rock Creek Trail.
