Because our Colorado trails are served by a variety of agencies, Dayhikes Near Denver is not able to update closure information for every trail. The best way to check these closures is directly on the websites of those agencies (listed below). Please adhere to social distancing requirements, local quarantine requirements, and the limitations put in place by the specific agencies listed below. Our collective goal is to protect the most vulnerable and pursue the common good of our communities.
