Arthur's Rock - Fort Collins Colorado Hikes

Wonderful hiking in a beautiful state park just west of Fort Collins. This loop takes you up to Arthur’s Rock, traveling over beautiful flower-filled hills, with views to the east of Horsetooth Reservoir, south to Horsetooth Mountain Park, and east to the plains. A great wildlife hike and a good place to bring the family and enjoy all the activities this park has to offer.
