a splendid spot to spend a night or two; why not take a refreshing hike along the North Fork Trail.
Big Rainbow Lake is a good location to visit for more than one day, Browns Park Campground is a good location to camp nearby,
and whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then, we recommend Joe Wright Creek. This lake is so wonderful. You'll need more than a day to discover everything Big Rainbow Lake has to offer, you can camp at Hooligan
Roost Campground; Upper Sandbar Lake is a delightful lake nearby.
This lake is so wonderful. There's whitewater on Cache La Poudre River for all you adrenaline junkies; hiking is a popular thing to do around Big Rainbow Lake;
McIntyre Lake Trail is a magnificent local trail. And that's not all you can do here at Big Rainbow Lake. There's nice hiking along the Rawah Trail; one of the overriding features of the surroundings of Big Rainbow Lake is Sheep Mountain.

Browns Park Campground
 | Drove up from Longmont, sad to see closed even after Memorial day.... |
Tunnel Campground
| This has been a favorite vacation/relaxation spot for my family for many years. The popularity has grown and the campground is very busy during the summer months on weekends. There is great stream and lake fishing nearby, plenty of trails for hiking and an evening drive to Long Draw Reservoir is guaranteed to provide sightings of elk and moose. ... |
Long Draw Reservoir
| 15 miles away
A very nice place to go camping, hiking and fishing. The reservoir has an astonishing breathtaking view, nothing like I have ever seen before, yes that beautiful! We went the weekend of July 10th, 2009 the weather during the day is very nice and sunny avg. temp about 75 degrees, the nights however are very cold, dipping into the low 40's and 30's, so be prepared for that, we came with too little of blankets and learned that to be a big mistake. Long draw is located about 15 mi. inland from Hwy 14 just past Chambers, driving into the reservoir looks deceitful because it seems as though you are traveling into the thick of the forest with nothing but trees around, but be patient 15 mi. in you will discover the camp ground, enjoy!... |
