True to its name, Elk Meadow Park is the most likely place in the Open Space system to view herds of elk. Trail experiences are diverse including the option for the 4.7-mile difficult hike with a 2,100-foot elevation gain from the Stagecoach Boulevard trailhead to 9,708-foot Bergen Peak.
The Pioneer Trail connects Bergen Park to Evergreen Lake through Elk Meadow Park. View Pioneer Trail Map
