Sendero del Sol is Angel Fire’s arterial trail. This trail will connect Monte Verde Lake to US Highway 64, roughly paralleling Mountain View Blvd. An extension to Eagle Nest Village is also planned. Two greenbelt trails (Solar Loop & Bobcat) provide opportunities to create loop routes, and to connect to other Greenbelt Trails
 Sendero del Sol North and the Solar Loop Trail both start on the north side of North Angel Fire Road. The trails are connected near the solar panels by a bridge. The trails provide users with an opportunity to view the high technology solar panels, a meandering stream, and wildflowers associated with alpine meadows and wet lands. Sendero del Sol South starts on the south side of N. Angel Fire road and follows a compacted gravel trail south along a stream and wetlands to Olympic Park. The combined views of the mountains, ski area, wetlands, ponds and wildflowers are wonderful. From Olympic Park, access to Oeste Vista Trail is just a short distance. The return loop north makes use of Bobcat Trail. Bobcat Trail provides connections between Sendero del Sol Trail and the meadow trails (Deer, Elk, Bear). The trail starts at the Frontier Square sign and intersects Sendero del Sol Trail near South Angel Fire road. The trail is a mixture of logging roads, and natural surface wooded sections. One Way Length of Trails: Sendero N .35M, Solar .35M, Sendero S. 1M. Bobcat .6M |
