This slice-of-heaven hike has everything you’d hope to find in a Rocky Mountain hike. Climb beside streams, pass roaring waterfalls and massive boulders, hike through forests, and reach high, trout-filled lakes—all beneath towering peaks. From the trailhead at Bear Lake, make a long steady climb before reaching Odessa Lake, then dropping to Fern Lake—both nestled below Little Matterhorn (11,586 feet), Knobtop (12,331), and Gabletop (11,939) Mountains. As you complete the open loop, you’ll pass by Marguerite Falls, Fern Falls, and the Pool—a swirling rock-walled water pocket beneath the confluence of Spruce and Fern Creeks with the Big Thompson River. Follow the Big Thompson out to the Fern Lake Trailhead.
