Big South Trailhead provides access to the 10. 4-mile Big South Trail, which enters Comanche Peak Wilderness and connects to Rocky Mountain National Park via the Poudre River Trail.

The trailhead accommodates approximately 19 vehicles and offers hiking, backpacking, and horseback riding opportunities, though a potentially difficult Poudre River crossing should be considered depending on water flow and season.

No potable water is available at the trailhead, and all motorized/mechanized equipment is prohibited in the wilderness area.
