Trail Overview

Piedra Road will lead you north out of Pagosa Springs past the airport and a few neighborhoods. It eventually turns into a Forest Service road with two large parking areas and trailheads at the beginning. Here, you can park your trailers for ATVs or 6x6s and air down or up. The road will take you to the Williams Reservoir, several USFS campgrounds, primitive dry campsites, and along Weminuche Valley. It then turns hard left and heads up the switchbacks to 10,271 feet and several trails, including the Coldwater Creek trail. At the end of the road is a large meadow with multiple dispersed primitive campsites. There are scenic views all along the drive up--a few areas to watch out for with their steep inclines and turns.
