I need to take one of my sons on a 20mi hike for a merit badge, this is a day trip and not an overnighter. This has nothing to do with hunting and mainly a chance to explore new scenery/places but needs to appease a 13-14yr old. Strenuous is okay but death hike is out, doesn't sound like he wants to tag a 14r or such in the endeavor. I could drive further for other areas but there is alot around the radius of Den that I've skipped over that this could be a good excuse to see.
I'm considering stringing together some trails in Kenosha Mountains or Lost Creek Wilderness. But figured I might as well ask if there are any other recommendations to consider? Realistically there are a ton of options so mainly wondering if someone knows of a standout hike that meets the criteria.
