Mount Sanitas and Sanitas Valley Loop
The Mount Sanitas and Sanitas Valley Loop offers a rewarding hike with a combination of steep ascents, scenic overlooks, and diverse terrain. The route begins with the Sanitas Valley Trail, which meanders through open valleys, providing expansive views of the Boulder foothills. Once you begin the climb toward Mount Sanitas, the path becomes rockier, offering more challenging sections, especially near the summit, where you'll be rewarded with panoramic views stretching from the Indian Peaks to downtown Boulder and beyond. The East Ridge and Sanitas Valley Trails provide a slightly gentler return, with the valley trail offering a peaceful, sun-drenched finish amidst wildflowers and distant mountain vistas. #Hiking #Mountain #Forest #Nature #Loop #City
