CO-Dolores Area Hiking

Colorado

In the very southwestern part of Colorado where forested mountains give way to arid desert canyons lies the small town of Dolores, CO. There is some hiking around the campgrounds near the McPhee Reservoir and the McPhee Reservoir Trail, which follows the perimeter of the reservoir for 9 miles leaving right out of the town of Dolores, but most of the trails are just inside the nearby boundaries of the San Juan National Forest. Just northwest of town north on Road 31 and east on Co Rd W is the Boggy Trailhead, from which a number of motorized and non-motorized trails begin. The Sage Hen Loop Trail on the west bank of the McPhee Reservoir is popular with mountain bikers.
