The Rainbow Trail forms a 70 mile arc, starting in the San Isabel forest somewhat near Salida, following the Sangre de Cristo Mountain range, to Westcliffe. I believe it is popular with mountain bikers. We hiked a few miles of it from a trailhead off of Hwy 285 south of Poncha Springs and heading east.
