Spent a couple of hours in the area in early evening. We were on the "hunt" for moose to photograph, but no luck. Birds were plentiful and the muskrats were very active the day we were there. Trail is gravel/level with nice views of mountains...More
A fabulous walk around a beautiful mountain lake that just about anybody can do. We stop several times to get pictures of the awesome views. It's also a great warm-up for getting a little more acclimated to the altitude before heading to something more.
This is a nice walking path around the lake. They also had had paths farther behind that we did last time we visited and one that went up higher that we did not go on this visit.

Staying at Taharaa, this hike was only five minutes from our lodge, which was nice. There is a small lot right by the lake and then a larger lot across the street if needed; vault toilets are located in the parking area. The hike around...More

Lily Lake Trail (0.9 miles), a level gravel trail circles the lake, and is suitable for strollers and hikers of all ages and abilities. Lily Ridge Tail (1.1 miles), climbs above the lake and offers fine views of water and RMNP's two highest peaks, Mt....More
We walked the flat path around the lake and hiked the higher trail. I liked both but the 'steps' in the high trail were a bit much for my wife. The first ascent is steep. Also the trail isn't well marked up on top. I...More
A very popular lake side walk. I believe there are two loop lengths to choose from. Good nearly any time of year.
