Highlands Point Trails (including Longhorn Ledge ) are open for riding to Highlands Ranch Community Association members and their accompanied guests only. (Please bring your HRCA membership card with you when accessing any of the HRCA trails).

Need to Know

Be wary of uphill traffic. This is a popular route with little-to-no warning time.

Description

The trail kicks off with a sharp turn, but transforms quickly into a flat traverse across the hill, with stunning views the whole way along.

However, the real fun begins when you take a left turn, and head downhill. The trail ranges from sandy, tight turns towards the top, to big bumps with possible air time near the bottom, and long, straight stretches in between.
