San Juan National Forest

About

The San Juan National Forest offers moderate fall hiking trails, suitable for those with some experience, from September through November. Hikers can expect to spend around 2 hours on the trails, which vary in condition but are generally well-marked and maintained. The forest's trails take visitors through a mix of aspen and conifer forests, with notable fall color displays during the season. Parking and restrooms are available at various trailheads, and pets are permitted, making this a convenient and accessible destination for a day hike.
