Byers Peak lies west of Winter Park and the Fraser Valley and is located in the Byers Peak Wilderness. The mountain soars more than 12,000 feet in elevation, offering hikers panoramic views from the top. To reach the summit, start at the Byers Peak Trailhead. The trailhead requires hikers to travel 1.8 miles along a closed off forest service road. A bike rack is located at the trailhead for those who want to mountain bike those first miles. The 9-mile Byer Peak Trail passes through forested areas of pine and aspen, streams and wildflower patches. Once you reach treeline, be prepared for rockier terrain and some easy class 2 scrambling to reach Byers Peak.

About an hour away from Winter Park, hikers can climb the 9th and 11th highest peaks in Colorado. Grays and Torreys Peaks are considered easy 14ers in Colorado; however the hike is still rated as difficult. The hike begins at the Grays Peak Trailhead and passes streams and wildflowers from the start. Once you’ve reached the first 14er, there is a 500-foot drop along the saddle between Grays and Torreys. Rated as class 2, Torreys is the sharper peak and slightly more difficult to hike. With breathtaking panoramic views and a close proximity to Winter Park, these Colorado 14ers are some of the more popular ones in the state.
