Round Hill is a moderate hike in the Saguache Ranger District of the Rio Grande National Forest in Colorado, about 4.9 miles long and gaining roughly 1,457 feet. The trail is managed by the Forest Service and is an out-and-back route, with the low point around 9,241 feet and the high point near 10,700 feet. The trail surface is natural, and horses are allowed. Bikes are not. So plan for a ride on foot or horseback, with the latter option in play for riders. Simmons Peak lies about 1.3 miles away, and Rainbow Trail, a mountain biking route, is about 3.1 miles off. Pot O Gold and Hunts Peak are both hikes about 4 miles from the trail.
