Overview

Lake Evelyn Trail is mainly used as an access trail to the Lake Evelyn Recreational Trail and the other recreational trails in the Byers Peak Wilderness. It is a short and relatively easy drive with beautiful views as you travel along the north side of the valley. Keyser Creek winds along the south side of the trail for the length providing great views and a good chance of spotting wildlife. There are marshy areas where you may see moose grazing early in the morning or evening. It is also accessible with most vehicles and is a great "scenic detour" when in the area.
