Nice hike but the parking lot is always full.

Lovely, relaxing hikes. Good for mountain bikes. Many birds, such views.

Beautiful views!! I walked the Foothills Trail with a friend. It was nicely maintained and there was no litter. It was an easy in-out trail that took about 2 hours because we stopped to take so many pictures. We saw a few mountain bikers and a few other groups of hikers too, overall the trail wasnt that busy this Monday afternoon.

Cool, easy. FREE hike on the Eastern ridge of Horsetooth.

My go to quick hike with a view.

Great Prairie Dog viewing, mtn biking, trail running, hiking, etc

Perfect place to hike or run :)

Great easy and beautiful hike to the A

Above my skill level right now.

Love Maxwell. Great for hiking and biking. Not a beginner mtb trail past the fence

Its ok, mostly just a big field with cute prairie animals.

Great place to go let your dogs run for a bit

Good nice

Great place to get in a short trail run with beautiful views.

The Maxwell area has a wonderfully groomed trail, peaceful views of the Fort Collins foothills, and friendly hikers who lend an ear to chat.

One of the most popular trailheads in Fort Collins. Really great trail for running, mountain biking, hiking, bird watching, etc. Close to central FOCO, parking is first come first serve and fills up quick on the weekends. Overall a super nice little spot in a super nice town.

So many places on early part of trail where people do not clean up after their dog! There are even bags at the beginning of trail. Nice walk.

Nice trails great view

Love this area quick hour walk along the foothills around lakes, trees, and wildlife.

Perfect for a short visit with nature without any time commitment. You can enjoy a brief visit to enjoy the vista steps from your car, take a short hike to the shoreline, or do a little bouldering.

Close to town, but feels miles away, great views and trails.

Great place for trail running; close to town and well connected to other trails/natural areas.

This place has gorgeous houses and great views. Expect very nice people to greet you along the way. Very quiet and peaceful space with a very nice natural area.

Sooo beautiful!! Great for biking as well! Loved this hike!

Natural areas are the best. We could use another trail or two in the area to accommodate all users...

I love the hike. You can also bike. I dont go as often as I would like. Like other open areas you need to watch out for rattlers.

Had a great run here over the ridge.

I park here a lot for quick access to the Foothills trail. 2 miles to the A from this parking lot, or go south across the street for a loop on the Pine Ridge trail. Love my Fort Collins trails!

Great hike. Even took my long-haired dachshund with us. Made all the way to the top and back down. He crashed when we got home.

Great place to go mountain biking when you dont have a lot of time. Also good for beginners. Fun hike when you are with little kids as well.

Fun bike ride, but wish trail didnt dead end at top of The Big A

Great place to hike or mountain bike! If you are here to ride, get ready for a fun and quite technical trail!

Great views not crowded

Great place, nearby.

Great place to view wildlife!

Nice set of trails right outside Fort Collins

Beautiful just wish there were water fountains

Great trail along the A. Can get busy on the weekends.

Lots of wild life; prarie dogs and deer sightings are common

We have hiked this trail several times. Its convenient to town and an interesting climb that doesnt take too long.

Wonder is here

Trails are well maintained and everything is pretty. A little high-desert scrub, so bring bunches of sun block.

Fun area but it was quite a hike to the water from where we were.

Great place to mtb. Not as interesting as Blue Sky, but a good daily ride.

Great access and views. The parking lot requires a $7 day fee for non members, which is too expensive.

A great place to trail run with some awesome view of the city and Fort Collins. Also, a good place to train with some a hard hill climb along the way.

Beautiful place to go hiking; went with my GF. You can walk straight up to the A and to Horsetooth.

I admit bias its half a block from my house. I love having a nice hiking trail right there.

Nice hike through there. Great view at the top!

Nice trails close to town. Nice to hike, run, mountain bike. Connects to Pineridge and Horsetooth Reservoir.

The Trailhead for Maxwell is free. The $7 charge is at the top for Horsetooth Reservoir. Park at Maxwell for free off Overland Dr. and 42, near Hughes Stadium.

Awesome views!!

Great area to just explore via foot or mountain bike.

Always a lovely trail. Well maintained

Great place to walk dogs

You could see a lot of nothing way up here!

Just moved to the area and love the tasks up over the hill to Horsetooth reservoir.

Fun fun easy, easy little hike with an awesome view

Gorgeous area to hike. There is a $6 fee to park though.

Another hiking area I tried over my time spent in CO.

Great open space, luvit

Love the open space.

Easy access, great views!

Needs maintenance, and it is a busy trail. But the urban view/ view of the lake is phenomenal!

Great views of both Horsetooth Reservoir and Fort Collins.

Nice hiking options close to town

Optical illusion, I love this drive!

A little expensive.

Nice place

Great views of Fort Collins

Decent hike up to the reservoir

Beautiful

Fun little park.

Beautiful place to be.
