Short and Beautiful Hike

Don't be afraid to explore the view from different sides of the falls!

Time: Less than 1 hour round trip

Directions: 

Begin at the top of North Aspen Street in the town of Telluride. Instead of taking a left at the Corner Creek Bridge as you would to access the Jud Wiebe Trail, continue straight and follow the trail to Cornet Falls.
