The Goshawk Ridge trail winds through one of the most beautiful and pristine parts of Boulder Open Space and Mountain Parks. Its pine forests and lush, wet meadows are thick with wildflowers and a haven for wildlife. Explore this trail with naturalist Dave Sutherland. Plan to hike four miles, with 700’ elevation gain.

Where and when to meet: Since parking is very tight at the access point, everyone is encouraged to meet at 8:30 AM at the Eldorado Park and Ride (map) at the northeast corner of Hwy 93 and Marshall Road, to carpool in the fewest vehicles possible. If you need to leave early and drive on your own, we will meet you about 8:45 at the gate at the Fowler Trailhead (map) at the top of County Road 67 (west on Eldorado Springs Drive from Hwy 93 about 2.3 miles, then south and up past the Yoga Ashram).
