The Incline itself is the green line, and you ascend from right to left. Then you take the crooked red line down the mountain. One mile up, four miles back.
Locals in the Colorado Springs area frequent this very unique fitness challenge: The Manitou Springs Incline.
Manitou Springs is one of the towns due west of Colorado Springs. It’s known as a vacation spot for their natural springs and boasts the home of the Pike’s Peak Cog Railway (for another post).
It’s also the town with the trailhead for the hiking trail up Pike’s Peak, the Barr Trail.
Not far from the Barr Trail is something called “The Incline”.
