Best massage I've Ever had! Marcus was professional, personable, and very talented. I told him a few problem areas and he focused on exactly what my muscles needed! I left feeling incredible.

Piedra River Trail

Reviewed By rfw1953 - Crested Butte, United States

My wife and I just happened to find this amazing hiking area. You travel down hwy 600 from hwy 160 in Pagosa Springs. Once on 600 (Piedra Road), you'll go about 15 miles until the road becomes hard dirt. Once on the dirt road, you will travel approx 5 miles to the trail head on the left. The trail head is on the river, so it's easy to find. The trail itself goes along the river with amazing views of cliffs and the river. If you're lucky there will be plenty of rock climbers to watch. I'm 67 years old and had two knee replacements within the past 6 months, so if I can walk the trail, just about anyone can. It's well marked, and easy to follow. The terrain can be a little tricky at times, but it's certainly not hard. Take plenty of water and a lunch to enjoy while sitting along the river. We stooped for our lunch at about 2.5 miles at a bridge that goes over the river. We turned around then and went back, but the trail continues on for several miles if you like. Once you finish your hike, take a drive on up the dirt road to Piedra River Falls and Williams Reservoir. Both are beautiful and a must see when in the area. If you have a kayak, take it up to enjoy lake kayaking on the reservoir.
