The city and county of Boulder, Colorado, may be the most trail-rich location on the planet.  Where Boulder nestles at the base of the Rocky Mountains, you can literally step off city streets onto beautiful mountain trails.  Every year some four million people from across the world come here to hike and bike the trails.  Yet with 130 miles (208 km) of trails to choose from, you never feel crowded.

If you're planning a trail experience in Boulder, TrailOver provides a "virtual tour" or slideshow (with viewer controls) of each trail, so you can select the ones you most prefer based on scenery and difficulty.  Within a few minutes you'll have a good idea of what the trail looks like.  In case you're wondering if this sneak peek might somehow spoil your adventure, rest assured nothing compares to being on the trail!

If you've already had your trail experience in Boulder, a TrailOver tour plus your own photos is a great way to share your whole experience with others through the Web.  Either way, be sure to also visit the excellent Website of Boulder's Open Space and Mountain Parks division, www.osmp.org, where you'll find a wealth of information about the trail system and other natural attractions in this area.  TrailOver provides some convenient links to that site.

Finally, you're welcome to sign our Guest Book (see CONTACT), make a comment on your favorite Boulder trail experience, and perhaps furnish a link to your own photos posted elsewhere.

Hope to see you on the trail!
