Piedra Road Access

Piedra Road Access (CR 600/FS 631) provides year-round vehicle access north from Pagosa Springs to the San Juan National Forest, featuring two large parking areas with trailheads at the entrance where visitors can park trailers and air down vehicles.

The road serves as the primary access point for the Piedra River Trail and multiple other hiking trails, with Forest Service campgrounds and dispersed campsites available along the route.

This is a critical access point for both day-use and backcountry recreation in the Piedra River area, though the road becomes narrower with switchbacks at higher elevations and should be avoided in wet weather conditions.
