Available for biking, hiking and horseback
riding, the 6 mile Mountain View Trail serves as a connector trail
from Mount Werner to Long Lake and functions to compliment the existing
trails in the area by forming a loop. Mountain View Trail connects 25
miles of summer use trails within the Steamboat Ski Area to a system of
Forest Service trails including Fish Creek Trail
#1102, Wyoming Trail #1101 and Percy Lake Trail #1134. |

From the Storm Peak trailhead, Mountain View Trail travels
along 5 miles of single-track, 4 miles on a ridge east of the Steamboat
Ski Area then 1 mile north to Long Lake Reservoir. At Long Lake Reservoir
the trail picks up an existing two-track road for another mile up to FR
310.
