Beautiful trail! Right near Boulder without going too far out of the city. The views are incredible. It is a more residential hike. Surrounded by local homes. There are people walking their dogs everywhere. Definitely a good trail just to get out of the house a bit.

This is a very pretty area of the foothills for a short hike (2 miles or so to take it all in). There isnt much shade so I recommend morning or evening if its a typical Boulder summer day. You can usually see some paragliders to the north doing their thing as well.

Was told this place would be great for bass fishing. Theres hardly a lake remaining. What little water remains is home to ducks trying to get in. If youre looking to fish, go elsewhere.

Nice easy trail with some graded features and connects up and down the foothills. Good for biking, hiking and running!

Such a beautiful place to walk in the morning. Nature all around, birds chirping, just breathe the fresh air. Enjoy the view of the flatirons.

This place is magical, seriously! I come here daily since I live nearby and every time is different. Great space for jogging, strolling, play with the kids (playground included), fishing and admire nature.

Its a short trail, pretty good for me. The view of Boulder is something to see in person.

This trail never disappoints. Great for hiking and biking!

Defintely one of the best views Ive had in my semi-short life

What a great walk trail and scenary. In the winter you may think at some angles that you are in switzerland.

Great trail. Beautiful scenery. The lake creates a peaceful atmosphere. Its a lovely place, and very enjoyable to run here. There is a playground on the far south side of the lake. The only downside, would be lack of parking and bathrooms. otherwise the best trail in North Boulder.

This Lake is beautiful, in all of its views and wonder, the trail itself is a trail of mirth and a walk for the soul.

Beautiful place to take your dogs!

A few different trail options. You can stay flat by walking the trail around the lake or you can head up the mountain.

Very enjoyable, very family friendly!

The lake and the foothills are always pretty, and its a good hike. Really muddy in the winter. If youre looking for a walk with your dog, its a decent place. If youre looking for views, however, there are better views on other trails. This particular place has a lot of very visible houses all around it, cutting into the view.

Fun easy walk around the lake.

Beautiful. Great for bike riding.

Beautiful lake and mountain views. Easy level trail.

Park here if you want to hike/run around Wonderland Lake, or access the Foothills trail. The lake trail is dog friendly. There isnt alot of parking, so Id expect that it would get pretty busy on the weekends.The trail around the lake is very flat and easy.

Great trail good view of the foothills

What a wonderful trail tucked away in Boulder. Around the lake, up the mountain, and more; so many options. Watching the paragliders was neat. The park was clean and everyone we ran into delightful. You can fish here too, but we didnt so not sure how good it is for that.

Probably my favorite place to walk in boulder! Nice little loop with gorgeous views. Usually can park in the lot easily.

Nice park. Well kept up. A great trail around the lake to walk plus a fun kid area! ♡

Not the greatest walk, but close to Boulder.

Small hike beautiful view of north Boulder

Very private and personal

Really beautiful place. Its nice for long walks or runs or even bike rides. Theres a park nearby so your family can walk from there to the park really great place for photos but sadly I didnt get any.

Its a loop around a small body of water - dare I say a pond? Not bad for jogging or kids, but I wouldnt choose this place for a hike.

First date. Great.

Beautiful scenery! The loop is Great for a casual walk/hike.

Perfect mirror lake on some days. Short gentle walk on dirt path.

Lovely whether you want a long hike or a short hike...

Beautiful trail. Very easy terrain so stroller friendly. Has a nice playground along the loop.

Beautiful trails around a lake. Gentle, mostly flat. Probably leads uphill further along

Very scenic

Short walk around a beautiful lake.

Easy access

Beautiful area to walk around.

A beautiful place for a walk and a picnic

Great place

Absolutely beautiful, very easy, wide trails. Limited elevation gains

I could hear god speaking in this beautiful serine location

Designate Wonderland Lake as a Wildlife Sanctuary. Do it for the animals! If facilities are upgraded (restrooms, more parking) then it will become overrun and ruined just like Flagstaff, Chautauqua, Mt. Sanitas & Sunshine Canyon Wildlife Sanctuary. Wildlife needs Open Space too.

Easy trail with stunning views of North Boulder!

Beautiful 2 mile flat walk

Good trail to start running

Easy parking and stroll around lake.

Pleasant enough for family walks, especially with young children.There is a small play ground, the loop is mild.And its great for people who push small dogs in strollers .

Favorite trail.love running around the lake. the trails are fairly level and easy to maneuver. there are several different paths you can take. and there are a few foot paths up the small mountains as well. its best early morning between 430am and 9am.

Nice view and trail for an easy walk

Went here with a 3 and 5 year old. Nice little walk but wasnt the lake hike experience we wanted. They did have a park where we could stop to eat lunch, which was nice. But mostly just felt dirty and hot.

Very beautiful and the loop trail around the lake is great for running or walking. Ideal for people who arent very mobile but want a great view and a chance to see wildlife.

Nice short, less than 2 miles, loop around a lake. Amazing View of the mountains.

Great place to trail run in Boulder for those who like to keep it a bit flatter. The lake can have quite a few mosquitoes in summer, but for winter it cant be beat. Stays snow free more than other local trails, as there is no direct shade, yet you are still right up next to the mountains. Not nearly as crowded as the easy to access trails in south Boulder are. Saw an enormous hawk on todays run! People also fish at the lake. Can be used as a connector to longer trail running up into the foothills or northward towards Lee Hill Drive.

Great trail system. Nice for walks or runs.

Bring sun protection. Beautiful walking/biking trails.

Beautiful trail looping around a pretty lake. Very nice playground on the south side and easy terrain for a stroller

It is a pretty standard Trial Head. The parking lit was clean and space seemed to be cared for pretty well. Its a good place to go hiking, walking, to take dogs for a walk, or just to sit and enjoy the view. It didnt seem like a great place for biking or to bring younger kiddos as there want much in the way of entertainment and only a small amount of wildlife (mostly birds) that I noticed. However, if you have older kids 5+, who like to go for walks it is an easy trail that they can get started on and introduced to nature on.

Favorite place to hangout

Great little hike with great views of Boulder.

This is a pretty, gravel walk along the edge of Wonderland Lake. The lake wasnt quite as big as pictures make it look but the views are gorgeous and definitely worth the visit! On a nice day, you can see paragliders launching from the nearest ridge (and theres an off trail that takes you to the launch site!) Its a super accessible walk for anyone from kids to older folks, a great alternative to some of the more challenging trails around Boulder.

Awesome loop, better to run or walk than bike ride. Watch for gnats on the east side.

Great place to take the dog for a nice walk.

Hidden gem in town

Easy trails to hike, not a bunch of people when I went. Parking spots are limited.

It was like walking in a wonderland, very appropriately named!

Nice easy walk with views of the mountains around Boulder

Small lake with a path around it. Great views of the foothills and the flatirons to the south.

Beautiful canyon. Small parking area. Right on the river.

This is a walk with a gorgeous view! Its not strenuous, but you have a cute if the lake and the flatirons and surrounding mountains. I just love to grab a coffee and take my son for a walk in his stroller around the lake. Its one of my favorite parts of Boulder. However, if youre looking for a difficult hike, I wouldnt recommend it because you wont find that here.

Great place to see a U.F.O.

Great Trail for walking and enjoying Boulder foothills and views

Beautiful trail nearby a pond with stunning view of mountain side.

I like this place, but damn, its been 5 years since the flood. Fix the bridge already with all those sweet Boulder tax funds. Were still using boards (likely not placed by OSMP) to get across the creek 5 years later like thats normal.

One of my favorite local trails close to home.

Wonderful! So peaceful.

Beautiful but no shade.

Great location in North Boulder. Easy walk, lots of dogs and kiddos on the trail. Small playground is nice. However, no restroom facilities.

Relaxation

Good easy trail to take the family for quick walk.

Near my neighborhood. Beautiful scenery

Nice walk but not outstanding.

Nice place to watch the birds and take an easy walk

A flat trail around a beautiful lake in the foothills.

Beautiful park

Still one of my favorite walks in Boulder.

Perfect for an easy hike

Great for visitors who may not have acclimatized to the elevation. Do the lake loop in the evening - beautiful sunset!

People and dogs on a dreary flatland trail. Horrible in the. Middle of the day and boring otherwise. But great for dogs

Easy trail, great views, well maintained. Great for kiddos. Especially the playground!

This Third Eye Tribe medicine gathering was a perfect way to enjoy the power of the full moon. I am looking forward to enjoying and providing more healing ceremonies here. Hit me up on Facebook KaliHeals ^_^

Can get icy sometimes

So beautiful.

Beautiful Park! I come here to paraglide and it is a really great site!

Great to do intervals around!

Great trails and a quick hike to paraglider launch ;)

Great place to walk and take he fog&kids.

NATURE

Great place for walking the dog or jogging.
