CO 13ERS

Colorado 13ers—mountains between 13,000 and 13,999 feet—offer many of the same rewards as their more famous 14er counterparts, often with fewer crowds and a greater sense of solitude. Unlike the iconic 14ers, many 13ers are off the beaten path. You’ll often have the summit (and the trail) to yourself—ideal for a more peaceful, immersive experience in nature. 13ers still offer jaw-dropping alpine views, glacier-carved valleys, wildflower-filled meadows, and ridgeline adventures—just a few hundred feet lower than a 14er.
