Alfa Fia Tank Loop
Table of contents
The Alfa Fia Tank Loop is a short and sweet hike near the Kachina Peaks Wilderness. This route displays a stand of aspen trees that are gorgeous in the fall when their leaves turn yellow, which is even more of a highlight than the tank, which is a small pond in the grass. With some mountain views to top it off, this is a beautiful hike in a quick, easy package. Expect moderate traffic.
Route Description for Alfa Fia Tank Loop
The Alfa Fia Tank Loop is a bit of an underrated hike. It shows off a beautiful stand of aspen trees, which shimmer golden in the autumn–a sight to see! This route also offers views of the mountains of the Kachina Peaks Wilderness and the birds and animals that come to visit the pond. It’s a beautiful little hike that’s fine for all ages and skill levels. The trail is well-maintained but has some rocky areas where you may want to watch your steps. From the trailhead, go right and then bear left right away. Continue straight through a 4-way junction, then keep hiking straight towards the pond. Loop around the pond to see what kind of birds you might be able to spot, before returning to the trail and retracing your steps to the trailhead… Or linger a while in the aspens!Getting to the Alfa Fia Tank Loop Trailhead
