      Hidden Mesa is a small open space park in Douglas County near Franktown. The majority of the trails are on the easy side of the scale, however, Rocky Pass is steep and loose rocks with a rock ledge to get over. Mesa Rim Loop is fairly flat but has some unique options for technical riding through and over Moab type rocky areas. Pleasant Pass is a recent addition to the park and makes the climb up to Mesa Rim Loop much easier.
