Comanche is a moderate hike in the Sangre de Cristo Wilderness, part of the San Carlos Ranger District of the Pike and San Isabel National Forests in Colorado. The trail is about 10.4 miles long, with a one-way elevation gain of 2,853 feet, and it runs on natural surface. The Forest Service manages the land, and the route is an out-and-back that starts and ends at roughly 9,045 feet and reaches a high point of about 12,760 feet. The trail is rated moderate, and horses are allowed. It lies within designated wilderness, so plan for a backcountry experience. Comanche Peak and Little Horn Peak both sit about 0.4 miles away, and Alvarado Campground is about half a mile off. The Sangre de Cristo Range climbing area is about 1.2 miles away.
