Hayden Pass Trail
|
The Hayden Pass Trail climbs over the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, travelling through pine forest and some rough sections before descending towards the San Luis Valley and the small town of Villa Grove. The views from the west side of the pass into the valley are quite remarkable on a clear day.
