Rainbow Trail

Great neighborhood pass through trail

July, 2025 by rbjones467

Rainbow Trail is a great stress free connector from the Arvada firefighters Park to the east rainbow park in North Arvada. Nice wide well maintained concrete trails. Mostly passes in between fences of houses on each side of the route but with ample trees. Great way to get to King Soopers (80th & Wadsworth) from the West End of Arvada.

Spring Creek Trail (CO)

Excellent ride

July, 2025 by nicholae.brown

Starting in spring canyon community park and riding towards downtown, this is a great loop and connects to other great routes. Spring creek trail is one of my favorite ft collins pathed rides. If you have a mountain bike they have a small fun park to ride some dirt hills. If you enjoy scenery, the ride takes you past several nice farms, under bridges, and by some nice lakes and streams. Several breweries along the way that are bike friendly and to fill up your canteen or jugs. Love the ride

Poudre River Trail

wonderful evening ride

July, 2025 by nicholae.brown

This trail is well paved and an excellent ride. The connection from Timnath to Windsor is not connected. Unless there’s an alt route it abruptly ends in a field. Being stubborn I powered through the field following pink land surveying markers. Since there is no bridge, I had to go down a dirt road and use a bridge to get to the other side of the water. The dirt road turns to thick, hard to ride grass, and found myself riding through an oil rig site. From there I took the dirt road to the street. The street, going left, leads to a lake and greenway, the first right you can take. There’s some construction Windsor after the park and to navigate toward Greeley you have to take some street. Unless I’m mistaken the path is not complete. As soon as it is this is a must ride! Stopped at Luna’s Tacos in Windsor and great halfway rest drink and grub spot.

Loveland Recreation Trail

Loveland recreational trail-loved it!

July, 2025 by jenkins4fun

We did 15 miles starting by the Chilson rec center and went west all the way to the end by Oxbow missing the bridge that goes under 34. We then crossed under 34 to Mehaffey Park. Had a nice picnic break there and turned back. It was a great ride.

South Platte River Trail

Calm and collected from the conference

June, 2025 by daraniashley

I rode this trail while in town for a conference and it did not disappoint. Use the lime bikes too. It was peaceful.

Coal Creek Regional Trail

Great gravel ride!

June, 2025 by nicoleworldwide

We started at the trailhead in Superior and road to the Flagg Creek trailhead. This is a really well maintained, mostly gravel, trail. It winds around a number of neighborhoods and through many open spaces with really interesting views of houses AND the front range mountains. It follows a river crossing it many times. There were only a few road crossings with most of the trail having underpasses with no need to deal with traffic. All in all, a really fun ride!

Lowell Boulevard Trail

This isn't a trail

May, 2025 by gladfelter

It's a road with a 30mph speed limit, lots of cross streets and awful sidewalks with countless blind driveways. Did I mention that for over a mile there is no bike lane and the road is too narrow to let cars pass safely without crossing the double-yellow?

You're forced to take it from time to time, but no one would seek this out. I can only assume that this trail designation is someone's idea of a joke.

Yankee Doodle Trail

Short trail if you live walking distance

March, 2025 by zxr7cncn2c

Nice trail for a lunch time walk. Not worth commuting to. Walked in early spring so not too green yet. I’m sure it gorgeous during summer!

Broomfield Trail

nice, safe, quiet paved trail

January, 2025 by hayes.w.becky

Been walking parts of this trail daily for weeks. It’s a nice, clean, safe and quiet area to walk and ride bikes.

Poudre Trail (Fort Collins)

Poudre Trail

October, 2024 by amy2paul

We rode the trail today 10-27-2024. The weather was perfect in the 70’s and slightly cloudy. The trail has lots of beautiful scenery. Only complaint was the condition of some of the asphalt. In some sections it has many cracks which are NOT marked so be very careful. The concrete sections were in great shape.

Boulder Creek Path

This path is littered with homeless people! Their tents, clotheslines, and trash line the river and completely destroy what would be a beautiful view of the river. Worse than the bike paths in downtown Denver!!
