Overview

Pleasant View Path is mapped as a trail of 0.13 mi in Boulder. It is not a loop: you walk it one way or out and back.

It runs between 5,318 ft and 5,324 ft above sea level, a difference of 6 ft.

The mapped surface is concrete.

Estimates

  • Computed effort band: easy (from length and climb; not an official difficulty).
  • Estimated time 5 min one way by Naismith's rule, which assumes steady walking and adds time for climbing. Real time varies.

Before you rely on this

  • Water points are mapped nearby, but mapped is not tested or guaranteed: treat any water and carry your own.
  • Check the land manager for closures, seasonal rules and permits before you go; none of that is verified here.

Length is measured from the route geometry in the source data, so it can differ from signed or official distances. Gain and loss describe the direction the line is drawn; the route view above shows the other direction and out and back. Elevation is computed from USGS 3DEP 1/3 arc-second DEM (public domain), sampled about every 10 m and smoothed.
