Push your limits and fulfill a sense of personal achievement along the Gregory Canyon and E.M Greenman Loop Trail. Immerse yourself in the wilderness and reconnect with nature as you wander through the dense woodlands and rocky outcroppings of the Boulder Open Space. Though dogs are permitted along this route, we suggest leaving them at home as there are steep sections of terrain that require scrambling up a ladder. Additionally, this path presents a whole new set of challenges in the winter months, but if you are set on hiking after snowfall be sure to wear microspikes or snowshoes.
