Located within the Dolores Ranger District of
San Juan National Forest, the 12.5 mile Bear Creek Trail transverses
the entire length of Bear Creek to the headwaters, where it intersects the
Sharkstooth Trail.
ATVs are NOT permitted due to the narrow width of the
trail. Dirt bike/Motorcycles only.
To reach Bear Creek Trail from Dolores Colorado travel 22
miles east along Highway 145. The trailhead is clearly marked on the
highway and begins about 0.25 miles upstream (east) from the confluence of
Bear Creek and the Dolores River.
