Bear Creek Trail
Get up close and personal with Pike Peak on this moderately challenging hike through meadows, aspens and pine trees. All the while being treated to sweeping views of Colorado Springs. While there is plenty to see along the way, you can enjoy some solitude during quieter times of day.
