Description

This trail starts at the parking lot on the south side of Rabbit Road at the end of the paved Santa Fe Rail Trail. It follows the tracks all the way past Eldorado to Highway 285 where the tracks cross the road.

It's a very easy trail little climbing on a pretty smooth surface. The views can be great.

Nice quiet walking path. At least it was on a Friday in early December. Just went a short section of the beginning. Sandy soil, wide doubletrack. 3mi — 0h 50m
