An amazing feeling to hike to the top, it is tiring and strenuous, but worth the view, recommend one or two walking sticks (more to help you keep your feet coming down than going up), lots of trees and rock formations, takes a couple hours, path is clear all the way to the top, you can take your dog - but it'll tire you out
2. Frisco Adventure Park
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 335 reviews
The Frisco Adventure Park is minutes from Frisco's charming Main Street, and in the winter, hosts a lift assisted tubing hill and a beginner ski/ride hill, as well as over 45k of cross-country ski/snowshoe trails and horse drawn sleigh ride dinners. The beginner ski/ride hill located adjacent to the tubing hill offers lessons taught by Copper Mountain instructors in the most laid back and easy going environment possible- a friendly surface lift to get you up the hill, a cozy lodge, free parking right next to the hill and instructors who will help you graduate to the "big mountain" at Copper. But remember- you can tackle this hill without instructors if you choose, and it is perfect for kids and adults alike. The Adventure Park sits on the beautiful Frisco Peninsula and is surrounded by Dillon Reservoir affording unforgettable water and mountain views in every direction. And in the summer, the Frisco Adventure Park boasts great free amenities including miles of mountain biking/hiking/running trails, a bike park, a skate park and a disc golf course. Camping is also available on National Forest Service land on the Peninsula. The Adventure Park Day Lodge offers free bathrooms and a comfortable base camp for activities year-round and hosts special and private events including weddings, family reunions, bike/running races and birthdays.

Went tubing with wife and 19 & 16 yo boys. Was a lot of fun! Conveyor belt a must to bring you to top, and the speed you get on the lanes are fun! Covid restrictions applied, so reservations are needed which is great because it didn’t feel overcrowded at all. Would recommend for family fun!

This was an easy hike near downtown Frisco to a beautiful lake. Our friends thought the pictures were Photo-shopped because of the perfect snow-capped mountains in the background.

This hike was very pleasant to get our bodies reacquainted to the altitude. We live in KC but visit annually to hike during the foliage change. The first mile was a slight challenge but quickly evened out. We followed the stream down to the waterfall then back. It was lovely.
