Onahu Creek Trail to Long Meadows
Rocky Mountain National Park
The Onahu Creek Trail connects with the un-maintained Long Meadows Trail to form a fun and challenging route to the southern edge of Long Meadows. This extraordinary 2 mile meadow system is seldom seen by even the most frequent and familiar visitors. For those seeking solitude from the crowds and excellent wildlife viewing opportunities, this is one of the Park’s best kept secrets.
