Trailwork Updates
Fall in the San Juans
Fall is the perfect time to hit the trails. Flowing through trail to the sound of golden aspen leaves under your tires or shoe tread; being outdoors rarely feels so good. There are notes of summer and hints of winter, and nothing beats being outdoors surrounded by the golden, red, yellow and green hues.

Your prescription to the outdoors is a 17 day trail challenge! Challenge yourself to see how many of Durango’s trails you can complete between now and October 5th!
The Durango Trails Rx is an opportunity for runners, walkers and mountain bikers to experience the vast array of trails that Durango Trails has spent the last 30 years planning, building and maintaining.
The event is not a race but rather an opportunity to learn about the variety of trails in our area, help promote Share the Trails ethics and realize one’s connection to the outdoors as a way to improve physical, mental and social well-being.
Register to participate, then start checking off the trail segments you complete! We’ll update everyone’s progress every Tuesday and Friday on our leaderboard above. Make sure to have all of your segments completed and checked off by 8:00 am on October 5th!
A dozen segments to complete!
To complete the Durango Trails Rx in full, you’ll need to complete 12 different segments of trails in the following areas: Horse Gulch, Overend, Animas Mountain, Grandview, Dalla Mountain Park, Twin Buttes, the Colorado Trail, Log Chutes, Missionary Ridge, Coal Bank, and Molas Pass.
Once you register, you’ll receive the list of specific segments to complete!
