Rio Grande Trail East
Cradled in the bottomlands along the Roaring Fork River, the paved Rio Grande Trail cuts through the heart of downtown Aspen. It is the perfect choice for families with small children, for those who want to stretch their legs between a continental breakfast and a gourmet lunch, or for those who need to unwind after work. Easy, lovely, and extremely popular, this stretch of domesticated wilderness is a classic compliment to Aspen’s glitter and bustle.
