Nature Center Trail Access

The Vail Nature Center provides trail access along Gore Creek on a seven-acre facility featuring a network of hiking trails through mountain meadow and forested terrain.

Located at 601 Vail Valley Drive in Vail, access is available via a short walk from the Soccer Fields parking area (0. 7 miles from I-70 exit 176 on Vail Valley Drive), with public bus service available to the trailhead.

The facility offers creekside nature tours and is donation-based, though note it is currently closed for the winter season and will reopen in June 2026.
