This trail passes by the turn-of-the-century ghost resort of Interlaken. This is a popular non-motorized multiple-use trail, expect to see mountain bikers, runners, anglers and other hikers.
Getting there: From the traffic light at 6th St. and Harrison Avenue, follow Highway 24 south for approximately 16 miles. Turn right (west) on Highway 82 toward Independence Pass. Follow Highway 82 for .6 mile, go past the Lost Canyon Road and turn left (south) onto this unsigned dirt road across from the little log cabin. Low-clearance vehicles should part at the wide area just south of the dam; high-clearance vehicles can continue along the left fork at the Colorado Trail sign to the end of the road, where another parking area is available.
