Hiking in and around Vail, Colorado is magical. Vail is home to some of the best hiking trails in Colorado. Spend an hour or a day hiking along waterfalls, rivers, streams, packed trails or steep peaks. Whatever you choose there are plenty of wildflowers, panoramic mountain views and wildlife to enjoy.
When hiking at high altitude it is very important to wear sunglasses, a hat and sunscreen, drink plenty of water, wear sturdy shoes and always have a light jacket on hand. Most important, don't forget your camera.
