Centennial Cone Park

Green rolling hills, dotted with scrub-brush and pines, adorn the landscape as a trail winds thru.

Centennial Cone Park offers a near-backcountry experience, with a 12-mile trail loop that challenges stamina, offers sweeping views of Clear Creek and provides the opportunity to see elk and other wildlife over wide expanses.
