Royal Arch Trail
You are going to have to work (and sweat) to get there, but you can savor the pain, along with the views, along the smooth sun-drenched rocks beneath the Royal Arch. This towering red-rock structure is as spectacular as any of the Flatirons, and it's well worth the hike, as it is a truly unique geologic formation on the Front Range.
