Description

The new Anemone Hill trail system is open to public as of 2022!

The enjoyable Anemone Loop Trail branches off from the Red Rocks Trail (about 0.2 mi from either the Centennial or The Peoples' Crossing Trailheads) and climbs up Anemone Hill. Enjoy some of Boulders best views from the top: sunrises over Boulder to the east and sunsets over the mountains to the west!

Nice uphill climb, not as intense as Mt. Sanitas across the road, but still a good stretch of the legs. 3mi
