Fremont is a loop hike of about 2.9 miles on the Forest Service land of the Divide Ranger District in the Rio Grande National Forest in Colorado. The trail is rated easy, with a total one-way climb of about 1,466 feet from a low point of about 10,099 feet to a high of about 11,797 feet. The trail is natural-surfaced and allows bikes. It's a loop, so the total gain of 1,466 feet covers the whole route.
