One of people’s favorites is the 4.3 miles Three Hills loop, which offers beautiful sunset views and can be accessed year-round. To feel the real burn, join jogging and running communities and explore challenging loops at the McKelligon Canyon, Franklin Mountains State Park, and Rio Bosque Wetlands Park.
