Recreation
Trails: The Association maintains an extensive trail system within Eagles Nest. The trails are open for skiing and snowshoeing. In the late spring and summer the trails are great for miles of hiking. The trails are indicated by GREEN and BIEGE trail signs. They connect to the National Forest trails and the Eagles Nest Wilderness. Have fun and be safe. Please, if you see any trash along the trails, be a good neighbor and help us keep the trails clean and free of debris.
Winter Groomed Trails: Groomed Nordic trails are provided on the Raven Golf Course with the support of the Town of Silverthorne. "Classic" and "skate" cross-country trails and snowshoeing are available on holes 1, 2, 3 (the South Loop) and 10, 11, and 13 (the North Loop). Park in the upper parking lot of the Raven Golf Club house. The Town of Silverthorne has an agreement with the Raven until April of 2010. That agreement specifically prohibits dogs and foot traffic on the groomed trails. At this time, there is no fee, no rentals on site, and no warming hut (yet).
ATTENTION
If dogs and foot traffic are not eliminated from these Nordic trails,
the Raven may eliminate access to and grooming of the these trails.
Please obey these rules !!!
