Antora Creek is a 3-mile out-and-back hike in Colorado's Rio Grande National Forest, within the Saguache Ranger District, on Forest Service land. It rises from a low point of about 9,700 feet to a high of roughly 10,432 feet, with a total gain of 734 feet over the course of the route. The trail is rated moderate, and its natural surface makes it suitable for horses and bikes, so riders and pack animals can join the walk. The trip works well as a standalone outing or as a link in a longer day. Brewery Creek and Flagstaff, both about 0.2 miles away, sit right next door. The Brewery Creek Guard Station and Brewery Creek Cabin, each about 0.7 miles off, offer camping for those who want to stay overnight. Elk Horn is about 2 miles away for another hike.
