Excellent family friendly hike up to the falls. There is a great spot about midway to have a snack break with incredible views of the mountains looking behind you. Avalanche remnants are there, excellent scenery and then you end with the waterfalls that are so refreshing after a moderated hike!

I don't see why this trail is rated difficult... it's several switchbacks, but the elevation gain is not too terribly difficult. The views looking back on the town of Telluride are priceless. Great views of Bridal Veil falls as well.

Awesome off road trail. Not easy but not too tough either. Only a few skid plate contacts and nobody got stuck. (Tacoma with 3” lift and 285’s)

This hiker only modification to the popular Village Trail takes you directly to or from the Mountain Village core and the Gondola. The very bottom is in the Telski Bike Park so use caution in this area including leashing up a dog.

In Telluride the Bear Creek trail. After 2.5 miles a gorgeous water falls. You can use switch backs to hike to the top. We steep sections and single track but fairly moderate to easy.

I started out at 950 am and hiked the Ouray end of the Dallas trail out and back. Very good for the most part. The was one tree I needed to crawl under and several more to climb over. Most of the streams were easy crossings. Moonshine Park was fabulous with great views of the Cimarrons. I wanted to get better pictures of the Sneffels range so extended the hike about 1/3 mile up a hill into a small park. Takes almost as long to come down 3000 ft as going up because of steep switchbacks near the beginning. Finished at 345. My wife and pup picked me up at the trailhead and we went into Ridgway, True Grit Cafe, for a well-earned Salmon, cranberry, almond, and blue cheese salad and a lot of tea. Highly recommended!
