Savage Run is a 16.8-mile out-and-back trail located in Wyoming. This moderate to challenging route offers hikers a substantial day hike experience through the region's natural landscape. The out-and-back format means you'll cover roughly 8.4 miles to reach the turnaround point before retracing your steps back to the trailhead. The trail provides a full immersion into Wyoming's backcountry environment, making it suitable for hikers with solid endurance and experience on longer routes. The out-and-back design allows for flexibility in your hike distance—you can turn around earlier if desired, or continue all the way to the established turnaround point for the full 16.8-mile experience. Savage Run is ideal for those seeking a quieter hiking experience away from heavily trafficked paths. The trail's length and format make it best suited for a full-day adventure with an early start. Bring adequate water and supplies for the journey, as the remote nature of the route means limited facilities along the way.
