Confirmed from Rifle Action Park'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 Rifle Action Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (21 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

The ride to the falls was beautiful, of course, but on the trail to the falls the closer you walked the sound of the water cascading over the rocks grew louder with each step. It was a breath taking sight, each droplet glistening in the sun.

★★★★★ — Barbara , Nov 2018

Las cascada es hermosa! Me gusta ir ay, me sirve de distracción y de relajación Un bonito lugar para ir en familia! Mi hija se encontró este monito (Jesús)en la pared (Jesús te ama )! Está al lado de la cascada llendo para las cuevas ! Espero volver a ir y que aún esté Jesús hay!

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.
