A great 20mi trail from Greeley to west of Windsor. A new section just opened up in 2010 extending trail even further west, to eventually connect to Ft Collins. Flat, wide paved trail. Good place to park is Eastman Park off County Rd 17. Plenty of scenery along the way.

Today we biked the entire Poudre River Trail...forth and back! It is beautiful and wonderfully laid out as it follows the twisting river. Lots of wildlife and domestic animals. Plenty of human-built buildings, gravel mines, and gas wells along the way. Makes an interesting juxtaposition of wild and domestic scenes. Fall leaves are just coming on (September). You will enjoy this trail. An environmental learning center is along the route. Saddle up and enjoy!
