Heil Valley Ranch / Lichen Loop - Longmont Colorado Hikes

A great family hike in Boulder County’s newest open space area. Great way to get the kids out into the woods on a short, scenic loop through stands of beautiful ponderosas and open meadows. Heil Valley Ranch is an excellent spot for wildlife viewing.
