Welcome to the Mineral Belt Trail

MINERAL BELT TRAIL DETOUR

The snow on the Mineral Belt Trail will be removed from East 12th. and Alder to the area in Evans gulch where the powerline crosses the trail. A detour will be in place routing the trail between East 12th. and a point on the trail east of the powerline. This is necessary to enable heavy equipment to reach the spot where drilling into the Leadville Drainage Tunnel will commence. It is unknown at this time how long this detour will be in use.

Welcome to the Mineral Belt Trail, one of Colorado's newest, highest and most spectacular paved pathways. Dedicated on July 29, 2000, this trail loops the city of Leadville, traveling through aspen groves, conifer forests, wildflower meadows, and open vista sage parks. 

The Mineral Belt Trail is a 11.6 mile all-season non-motorized ADA accessible route with numerous trailheads and access points. Approximately six miles of this trail meanders through the historic Leadville Mining District. It offers unsurpassed views of the Sawatch and Mosquito ranges.

The trail is designed for bicycles, walkers, wheelchairs, strollers and in-line skaters. Wintertime enthusiasts will find the trail snowcat-groomed, affording freestyle and classic Nordic skiing, snowshoeing and winter biking.
