If Colorado is good at one thing, it's constructing and maintaining amazing hiking trails and the Centennial State just announced a brand new one that's all-but guaranteed to thrill those of us who love to explore in our hiking boots and trail running shoes.
The Denver Orbital Trail is a 177-mile route that encircles the entire city of Denver. While most Denverites and visitors to the city expect a minimum of an hour's drive in I-70 traffic to get onto the trails, the DOT has sections that are as little as a 15 minute drive from downtown, and much of it is accessible by public transport.
