Description
Traveling adjacent to Tenmile Creek and within sight of the many peaks of the Tenmile Range, the Ten Mile Canyon Recpath offers breathtaking scenery that will make you forget Interstate 70 is never more than a couple hundred feet away. From Frisco, the paved trail is a gradual uphill trek southward to Copper Mountain. Fremont Pass, marking the beginning of the descent to Leadville, is several miles south of Copper Mountain in the mining village of Climax. Turn around and head north to Frisco if it's downhill riding or running you desire!
At Copper Road in Copper Mountain, pick up the paved Vail Pass Recpath to travel west along I-70 to Vail Pass and the eastern outskirts of Vail. In Frisco, seamlessly join the Frisco-Farmers Korner Recpath to access additional trails in the Summit County Recreational Pathway System.
