Boulder - Denver - Golden - Fort Collins - Lyons
For those seeking an easy day hike or a great fishing spot, the Ceran St Vrain Trail is an ideal destination. Located just 20 minutes from Boulder and adjacent to the town of Jamestown, the Ceran St Vrain Trail may be best known for its concentration of Fairy Slipper Orchids and dense pine forests. In winter, this trail is rarely used and provides a great place to snowshoe. In summer, the creek provides a fine respite from the warm weather.
