Bettie Course: Bridal Veil Falls Hike
Jun 12, 2025
Join us for an early summer women’s hike to a picturesque waterfall in Rocky Mountain National Park!
Join us for a women’s hike to Bridal Veil Falls! The hike will take you to a less traveled part of Rocky Mountain National Park. We will begin at Cow Creek Trailhead and hike past the historic McGraw Ranch. The trail follows Cow Creek, giving you glimpses at other smaller cascades along the way to Bridal Veil. The first part of the trail passes through open fields full of wildflowers where elk are often seen. Eventually, the trail heads into the woods, where it begins to climb in elevation, rewarding you with a stunning waterfall that drops out of a craggy cliff.
Distance and Elevation Gain: This hike is about 6 miles with 1,000 feet of elevation gain and loss.
Please note these hikes are meant to be an inclusive and fun way to get outside! We will be hiking at a pace that is comfortable for a large group. Everyone should feel like they can chat on the trail! This typically means a 1-1.5 mile per hour pace on the way up and a 1.5-2 mile per hour pace on the way down. The focus of these hikes is community building and connection and we intentionally move at a moderate pace.
The Conservancy provides transportation to and from the trailhead. Registration includes all Park fees and permits.
