Georgetownのおすすめランニングルート

The trail keeps going from here all the way to Lawson. Because it was built for wagons, the trail grade is flat as it skirts the mountains. If you are looking for a flat trail run that gets you into the wilderness, this is a great pick. You have to contend with noise from I-70, but thus is the tradeoff of flat running in the mountains.

This trail is an old wagon route between Georgetown and Lawson commissioned in 1887. There are lots of abandoned mines to look out for. You can hop on from either end of the trail or from parking at Alvarado Road.

This is a wide, well-landscaped, crushed gravel trail which skirts around the shoreline of Georgetown Lake. The trail crosses the dam at the lake's northern end. Both ends of this segment intersect with steeper trails that take you up the mountain to Dunbarton Mine (north) and the Purdy Trail (south).

Tom Bennoff Lake Trail circles around the entirety of Georgetown Lake. You can fish, boat, picnic, and ice skate on the lake (ice skating is of course only during the winter). The lake is easily visible from the interstate, but the trail travels through a treed area on the other side of the water.

There is roadside parking along the dirt road by the creek. From here the first portion of the trail will be up around four miles of gravel roads until you hit the Continental Divide Trail.

The Mount Flora Trail along Breckinridge Peak ascends from Empire via a singletrack trail that winds up through talus and scree fields. From the ridge you get fantastic views north towards Mount Eva and into the Mill Creek valley below.

Mount Flora rises to 13,146 feet and offers unobstructed views of the surrounding peaks and forests. The summit can be reached from multiple angles, but it is most often approached from the Berthoud Pass side.

The trail follows West Chicago Creek as it climbs steadily along singletrack trail until you break out of treeline by Hell's Hole.
