Notes The Silver Lake Trail is an absolutely gorgeous hike that ends at Silver Lake with cliffs on one side and a panoramic view of the valley on the other. Seasonally, there are beautiful wildflowers throughout the hike and even wild strawberries! There are a handful of creek crossings on this route, so it is a good idea to pack water shoes. This route is not to be confused with another Silver Lake near Brighton. The Silver Lake at Brighton is in a protected watershed and does not allow dogs. The road to the trailhead requires a high-clearance 4WD vehicle.

Exposure None Minimal Moderate Significant An "exposed" trail has a drop-off on one or both sides.
