The Mesa Trail has rolling hills, but it is still challenging as it spans a beautiful area of the amazing landscape just below the Flatirons and foothill peaks. The trail is long, sinuous, hilly and varied. It meanders through forests and meadows beneath the Flatirons with connections to nearly all canyon trails along Boulder's mountain backdrop. Dog friendly and popular for long runs.
Google partnered with OSMP to map some of the city’s trails in the summer of 2015. View the Mesa virtual map.
