Located in South Central Colorado is a very easy and fun ATV trail waiting for you to come explore! The Lily Ponds ATV trails are multi-use trails managed by the San Isabel National Forest service.
The ATV riding season is May through December and there are hikers, mountain bikers, motorcycle riders, and horseback riders on these trails. Ride your ATV defensively when you encounter these other types of traffic. In the early and certainly the later ATV driving seasons, you are likely to encounter snow, since these trails are so easy to maneuver, they are a good place for newer ATV riders or those inexperienced in driving in snow conditions can learn techniques and skills to safely handle this type of terrain with their ATVs.
This ATV trail is just over one mile in length and has an elevation of just over 700 feet. There are few obstacles and challenges so it's a great ride for the beginning ATVer.
If you are riding your ATV on these trails in the early morning or early evening hours, you are very likely to view a lot of local wildlife residents as you ride by on your ATV. Deer are especially prevalent in the area, as well as the smaller woodland creatures who will be peeking out at you.
Lily Ponds trail has several spots along the way to fish. If you brought your fishing gear and a fishing license on your ATV ride, pull over and catch a few! Interestingly enough, most of these ponds were created by beavers.
If you wish to add a little more scenery to your day, park your ATV at the end of the trail at Shore Pretty Overlook and hike up about 2 miles through beautiful aspen groves that wind around many more ponds, it's not passable by ATV, but a view definitely worth getting.
