The Eleven Mile State Park is a recreational haven situated around the Eleven Mile Reservoir in Colorado. Known for its picturesque landscapes and diverse outdoor activities, the park offers opportunities for fishing, boating, camping and hiking. But the stunning views of the reservoir and the rocky landscape are actually already a good enough reason to visit this place!

The Midland Trail, the longest among the singletrack loops in Eleven Mile State Park, is accessible via either the Aspen Loop Trail or the Ponderosa Loop Trail. This trail winds around the wetland bordering the reservoir, offering picturesque views of the surrounding pine trees and mountain meadows.

Helms Lake rests just over treeline at 11,735 feet. The alpine pool is about 2,300 feet lower than Mount Bierstadt, which makes for a great backdrop. There is some camping near the lake with wilderness area LNT principles governing the sites.

This lovely stretch of packed-dirt trail offers an interesting mix of shade, sun and beautiful views.

There are two lakes accessible from the DeCaLiBron parking area: Kite Lake and Lake Emma. While Kite Lake is just off the side of the main summit trail, Lake Emma is on a spur trail of its own and sees fewer visitors. Lake Emma is a classic rocky alpine lake with a few smaller pools next to it. This lake stays frozen late into the spring and sometimes into the summer. Even when you don't want to venture into the peaks of DeCaLiBron, you can still run the access road up to the Kite Lake parking area. This old mining road can be hard to maneuver in a car anyway. As a plus side, when the peaks close to the public, the road still stays open.
