Mt. Cutler Trail

Posted by kris under: Trails .

Name of Trial: Mt. Cutler Trail
Total Distance: 2 miles
Difficulty: Moderate
Hike Type: Out and back
Starting Location: On the left side of North Cheyenne Canyon Rd about 1.5 miles into North Cheyenne Canyon Park.

Mt. Cutler TrailI headed towards North Cheyenne Canyon Park and took North Cheyenne Canyon Rd about 1.5 miles up to the trailhead for Mt. Cutler Trail on the left side of the road. On the weekends, parking can be hard to find even though there are about ten spots.

Most of the trail is dirt and about three feet wide, with it becoming more gravely as you get closer to the top. After about one quarter of a mile I started to see some great views of the mountains and Colorado Springs. It was a nice hike with a few steep parts but they were followed with some even nicer flat sections.

A little over half of a mile along the trail it crests over the ridge of the mountain to a spectacular view of the mountains. The tail got a little bit smaller at this point and I was walking a little close to the edge, but I still felt safe. Along this section I had a good view of 7 Falls (and I did not have to pay $8.75 to see it). The summit was very close at this point and I had a great view of both the mountains and the valley.

This was a very nice short hike with some great views. It is good for people of all ages and is nice for a quick hike in the mountains.
