With over 30 miles of trails, Round Valley is a popular spot for runners, hikers, and mountain bikers alike. Surrounded by Park Meadows, Old Ranch Road, Trailside, and Quinn's Junction, there are many entry points and even more ways to explore. This 700-acre area of open space is characterized by small, rolling hills, and a desert-like environment where scrub brush is plentiful. Accessible year round, Round Valley is perfect for the times when you don't want to plan anything and would rather just decide how far and where to go in the moment. Much of the area is groomed during the winter months, making it great for cross country skiing and snow biking. The low angle trails are a great spot to take a winter stroll or get your sea legs on those skinny skis.
