About

The Jud Wiebe Memorial Trail is a moderate to challenging loop hike in Telluride, Colorado, located on the southern slope of the San Juan Mountains. The trail connects Aspen Street and Tomboy Road, offering steep ascents with approximately 1,200 feet of elevation gain over a distance of roughly 3.1 to 3.4 miles. Hikers typically complete the route in two to three hours. The trail provides clear views of Telluride, Mountain Village, and the surrounding ski peaks. It is popular for exercise and dog walking, with dogs permitted on leashes. While the trailhead at North Aspen Street often lacks dedicated parking, street parking is available in nearby neighborhoods. Restrooms are located at the trailhead. The best hiking season extends from late spring through fall, with peak aspen foliage occurring in late September. The trail is accessible year-round.
