Description
Shortly past where the
Idarado Legacy Trail ends, continue up the dirt road past the mill. It's 1.2 miles to the base of the 365-foot falls or you can continue to the top of the falls, the power plant and a vantage point of the valley below.
Bridal Veil Falls is the tallest free-falling waterfall in the state of Colorado.
While you won't have much solitude on this route, you'll enjoy some stunning views of the canyon, downtown Telluride, Ingram Falls, and
Bridal Veil Falls. The grade is steady, but not too steep and the dirt road is wide although a little rocky around the switchbacks.
Flora & Fauna
Aspens, willows and a variety of wildflowers.
