The Crystal Valley Trail opened in 2010 and has been a roaring success for hikers, bikers, joggers, skaters, skiers, and even a few cattle being driven to pasture. Connecting to the town trails at the new fire station, over the Fish Hatchery Bridge, winding through cattle pasture along Highway 133, it currently ends seven miles from town at the BRB Campground Resort (a KOA campground). Fantastic views of hay fields, cattle in pasture, Thompson Creek Bridge crossing, Crystal River, and all in view of Mt. Sopris.
