Climb the mountains and get their good tidings.
Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.
The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy,
while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.

Best Hikes:

• The Pool: 1.6 miles and nearly flat. This is an easy hike with many wildflowers.
• Mills Lake: 2.4 miles with moderate elevation gain. This is a good family hike to a beautiful lake with breathtaking views of Longs Peak and high peaks of Glacier Gorge.
• The Loch: 3 miles with moderate elevation gain. The Loch is a beautiful alpine lake surrounded by high cliffs with glaciers and falls in the distance.
• Chasm Lake: 4.2 miles, moderately steep. Chasm Lake lies at the base of the east face of Longs Peak, the most dramatic setting in the Park.
• McHenrys Peak: 8 miles with 4,000 feet of elevation gain and some 3rd-class climbing. Judged by some to be the hardest nontechnical peak in the park, McHenrys richly rewards the experienced hiker.
