2346 Academy Dr
United States Air Force Academy, CO 80840

Eagle Peak, located within the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado, offers a challenging hiking experience rivaling the famous Manitou Springs incline. Hikers can expect a rugged ascent of 1,900 feet in just 1.25 miles, culminating at a summit of 9,368 feet with breathtaking views, though caution is advised near the eastern cliffs.

The trail begins in a scenic wooded area and features beautiful aspen-filled meadows before leading hikers through steep and rocky terrain. Well-marked with white arrows and yellow dots, the trail is accessible via two parking areas within the Academy, making it a popular choice for outdoor enthusiasts seeking an invigorating challenge.
