This is a beautiful hiking trail! It isn’t too difficult either.

We decided to hike this short 3.2 mile trail for a mid-afternoon activity before hitting some of the local wineries. This is a surprisingly decent trail with some amazing views over Palisade. There are a lot of lizards, some ground squirrels and the occasional raptor. And at the far end of this loop hike, there are a few panels of petroglyphs. Simply amazing.

Nice hike with great views. Easy access and close to GJ. Heavily used including mountian bikes and dog walkers, but everyone is courteous. Some Highway noise, but once around the back side that dissipates.

With a quick easy-to-moderate 30-45’m ascent you can reach the top of the first mountain and get the best view of Palisade: the rocks, the river, and the wineries. Dog friendly trail. Highly recommended

Is this a "dog friendly" area

Pretty much everywhere is dog friendly here. Like all the trails and stuff. I mean you need a leash. But that's a given!
