Confirmed from Jewell Park Mountain Bike and Hiking Trail.'s own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

What runners say about Jewell Park Mountain Bike and Hiking Trail.

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (79 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Trails are in good condition. It took me 15 minutes to go around on a bike. A lot of ups and downs. I road it twice. Came here early on a Saturday and I was the only person around.

★★★★☆ — Jesse , Jul 2022

Great trail with some challenging climbs and very fast descents. A bit on the short side distance-wise but, could be ridden multiple times. Definitely worth checking out.

★★★★☆ — Andrew , May 2021

Great trail, very hilly. I would rank this a difficult. Did 3.27 miles 1 hrs 13 mins. 325 elevation. Lots and lots of trees. Was not very busy at all. I only saw 2 other people. I'm going to come back here to get ready for hiking outside of Boulder Co. This trail will help with my stamina.

★★★★★ — Jerry , May 2024

Trail is rated as difficult and it matches that rating! I loved the ride and there are some beautiful views on the trail.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.

⛰️ Hills / elevation 8 mentions

“Very narrow trail with steep hills, definitely made for bikes but super enjoyable for us hikers as well.”
