Trail Map |
When accessing the trail from loop A, hike past the gate along a two-track dirt road fro about 3/4 of a mile. Follow the creek up a beautiful, narrow canyon. Wildflowers line the trail while pine trees and aspen offer shade along the way. At the top of the trail there is a clear view of Daniel's Canyon. The trail will then turn back towards the campground, returning with a more gentle grade through aspen until it meets back up with a two-track road. Follow this road back to the campground where the trail will end about 1/4 mile from the trailhead. The rocky creek and numerous wildflowers make this trail very popular.
At Lodge pole campground, the trail begins on the service road located in loop A, near campsite 16. Two trails are accessible from this area. Both roads are marked with a Foreman Hollow Trail sign. Accessing the trail from the Lodge pole Campground requires a parking fee.
A non-fee alternative for the Foreman Hollow Trail can be accessed at the far north parking area of the Daniel's Summit Lodge. From the parking area, a connector trail, marked by blue diamonds, heads west. This trail meets a service road. The Foreman Hollow trailhead is up 1/8th of a mile, on the left side of this service road.
