Hi - I am new to hiking and would love to find an area in Colorado where I can take my dog, a 3 year old Golden Retriever, with me. I''ve been advised that national parks are out so any suggestions as to where to go would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much-

As for your question, national parks aren't entirely out for you and your dog. The Great Sand Dunes National Park allows dogs provided that they are on a leash. Same goes for Bent’s Old Fort—located between La Junta and Las Animas.
You can also check out Aspen, the Boulder Flatirons and the extensive trail network on Mt. Royal.
