Description
Primary trail through Colorado Springs from Air Force Academy (Santa Fe County Trail) south along Monument and Fountain Creeks to El Pomar Youth Sports Complex (Santa Fe County Trail). Also forms part of the Front Range Trail System.
The Pikes Peak Greenway has been approved as a part of the Regional Transportation Authority project list. Look for upgrades to the Pikes Peak Greenway over the next several years. Surface is concrete, asphalt and gravel.
Sometimes considered part of the Santa Fe Regional trail, but however the trail is known, it goes through Colorado Springs proper.
