Mountain biking
The Foothills Trail is a popular hiking, running, and mountain biking single and doubletrack trail that runs north-south along almost the entire length of the rolling ridge line above the eastern side of Horsetooth Reservoir. You do leave the ridge line a few times and cross a few roads here and there, but generally speaking you're riding on great singletrack with the occasional technical spot. The main difficult sections lie between College Lake and Reservoir Ridge and the Maxwell Natural Area, but are doable for an intermediate rider.
