Greyrock Mountain sits up the Poudre Canyon about 7.5 miles from Ted's Place and is the first designated hiking trail from the mouth of the canyon. The large expanse of rock on its southeast slope is visible from most anywhere along the northern front range. It is an moderate to easy, 7 mile round trip on a loop which leads through ponderosa pine and montane grassland to the summit of a mostly bald mountain from which 360 degree views of the plains, Fort Collins, and the Rocky Mountains are visible. The only strenuous stretch is the last mile which leads steeply to the summit.
