About
Roxborough State Park in Littleton offers moderate fall hiking across nearly 4,000 acres of red rock formations. The trail system comprises eight trails totaling approximately 14 miles, with typical hikes lasting about two hours. The park is accessible from a main trailhead near the Visitor Center and features parking. Fall conditions between September and November highlight the landscape, where changing foliage contrasts with red rock geology including the Fountain, Lyons, and Dakota Hogback formations. Wildlife sightings include mule deer, red fox, black bears, bobcats, mountain lions, and golden eagles. The Audubon Society recognizes the area as an Important Bird Area. Hikers should stay on designated trails to avoid rattlesnakes and poison ivy. Restrooms are available near the Visitor Center, and pets are permitted on most trails.
