Mount Bierstadt is a fourteener in Colorado. Fourteeners are mountains with atleast 14,000 feet of elevation at their summit. Bierstadt is a great mountain to start on for those that are new to hiking fourteeners. It is still strenuos on beginner hikers but manageable if you pace yourself. It is highly recommended to prepare yourself physically before attempting any fourteener, plus, getting in shape beforehand will make the experience that much more enjoyable. Mount Bierstadt is also good for trail running or there are alternate routes for those interested in more technical hiking or climbing.
