Castlewood Canyon : Inner Loop Trail


bon_vivi_ant_eats • Location: Castlewood Canyon State Park - Franktown, CO


♥ Having recently moved here to Colorado and being a singleton for a few months now, hiking has become my solace. The trees, the people, and the solitude bring me a comfort and calmness I was missing. Since everything that has happened, there is something about the mountains that gives me peace. Listening to the wind, smelling the trees, just staring as far as my eyes can see beyond the forest. I could stay for hours thinking about things or not really thinking about anything at all.


Castlewood Canyon, located outside Franktown, is a great hike if you are looking for something mild to moderate. The Inner Loop Trail is about 5 miles and takes you through the natural amphitheater and Bridge Canyon Overlook. The remnants of the Castlewood Canyon Dam that burst in 1933 sending 15-foot wave of water into Denver is also a great photo op spot.
