 Treasure Falls - Due to its location on Highway 160 at the base of Wolf Creek Pass, Treasure Falls trail is probably the most popular hike in Pagosa. To get there from town travel 14 miles east on Highway 160. The parking area is just off the highway on the right. It is a short quarter-mile trail to the bridge and another quarter mile to the base of the falls. Standing on the bridge, the falls pour a refreshing spray as they rush down the cliff in front of you. During the winter these falls create a frozen sculpture.
Piedra Falls - is another very easy hike that features an impressive waterfall rushing over volcanic rock. However, Piedra Falls takes much longer to get to the trailhead. For a beautiful 45-minute drive, travel north on Piedra Road 17 miles to Sportsman Supply. As the road forks, stay right on Middle Fork Road #640 and follow this road for two miles to East Toner Road. Turn right on East Toner Road and take it to the end. Walk along the river to the waterfall. It is about 1 mile and takes about 15-30 minutes each way. Please contact the Pagosa Ranger District Office, 970-264-2268, regarding camping at Trail Heads and Campfire restrictions. |
