With its 11.8 miles of walking distance; it's longer than many hiking trails. Of course, this is an overnight hike, 2 days normally, so it's a glorious thing if your backpack is big enough to do the job. Steamboat Trail goes through some very different elevations, and that means that some parts of the hiking trail could be very different from other parts of it. This backpacking and hiking trail sometimes gets very dry, so don’t forget to check for any current fire restrictions before you go. This is a backpacking and hiking trail that is quite long, so do pack enough food to last the whole trip.
