Description:
The Longmont-to-Boulder Regional Trail extends 12 miles between these two major cities and taps into the region's vast network of trails. The pathway has a gravel surface best for hybrids and mountain bikes.

It begins off Ken Pratt Boulevard in Longmont and follows the Left Hand Creek southwest through commercial and residential areas. Here, trail-goers can also connect to the St. Vrain Greenway, an 8-mile trail across the city offering spectacular mountain scenery and lake views.

When the trail reaches the Diagonal Highway, it begins to closely follow the roadway through rural landscapes. At 83rd Street, the trail makes a sharp turn due south, shortly entering the community of Niwot. It continues through Monarch Park and makes its way toward the scenic Twin Lakes area. From the trail's end at Spine Road, a short on-road connection will take you to Boulder's Cottonwood Trail.

Great ride
By PRINZMETAL in October, 2011
You will most likely be a lone rider and have most of the path all to yourself. The path goes by rushing streams, lush farmlands, in back of expensive luxury houses with some city streets.
