No on road riding required and there are viaducts so you don’t have to cross any busy streets. If you can take this ride in the fall, you’ll find it spectacular but it’s great spring summer and fall because of the wonderful shade. Most of the trail is wooded and you go by multiple small lakes.
Overall, it was a great experience but the bridge was closed right after Wadsworth. The detour sign just sends you to Wadsworth which was heavily trafficked, all uphill and felt somewhat unsafe. On the way back west, I took a different detour that was much better. I wish the detour sign began right before crossing the bridge at Wadsworth and told you to go north instead. Yale is much safer and you can take that to Webster which then brings you back to the trail.
We did this ride on Friday 8-21-26 and it was like Freedom on wheels. I am disabled with the condition of Transverse myelitis. Which was a complication to my flu shot in 2014. It paralyzed me from the waist down by floor only a short period of time was completely paralyzed, but it have been a mobility limited ever since then, and the majority of the time if I were to wanted to do anything like this at all, my husband would’ve probably had to have pushed me in a wheelchair the entire way or I could’ve probably use my electric wheelchair although I didn’t even know about this trail and I’m not sure how my battery. would have sustained. But my E—trike did the roundtrip from 40th and Youngfield Trail parking and to the current trail end on onl two bars off my battery. . The trail was very well maintained for my abilities yet fun enough for my husband as well. It was a fairly hot day so I did indulge in a river soak for a bit before returning back. Beautiful scenery, respectful trail sharing. BRING AND WEAR SUNSCREEN! would’ve held up on my electric
Parked at Woody Creek Trailhead and went north to Herron Park in Aspen where there is about a 5 mile gravel stretch, down to Glenwood Springs and back up to Woody Creek. 84 miles round trip on hybrids, no e-bike, 60+. Elevation gain/loss is fairly subtle. There were places to get water, porta-johns, pit toilets fairly frequent. Beautiful scenery. One of the best Rail Trails we've done! Take off out of Two Rivers Park in Glenwood Springs if passing through on I-70. There is a burrito place and bike shop close to path in Carbondale. Highly recommended, this trail.
From Redstone the trail starts at the KOA campground. There is a place to park less than 1/4 mile from KOA going towards Carbondale. There’s a pretty big parking lot. I think people have parking there for River rafting? Anyways, we parked there and road into Carbondale. We made a right onto Weant Blvd, a right onto Main and St then a left onto N 4th st to join the Rio Grand Trail to head towards Basalt.
The Poudre Trail is flat, well marked and has many shady areas. A large park with bathrooms was a nice resting spot. Will definitely ride it again!
We road from Palmer Lake to the closure at the Air Force Academy . Out and back would be about 16 miles . The trail was very nice and great scenery. Little loose and sandy in spots so be aware of that . They are going to close a section starting tomorrow, July 9, 2026 due to construction so be aware of that and plan accordingly. On our way back we stopped to have lunch in old downtown Monument and that was nice . We rode around the old downtown a little bit before heading back up to Palmer Lake.
We road the trail starting at the Pikes Peak Greenway trail and road the sand Creek trail to Panoramic Park but part of it required riding on the road using the bike lanes. At times the park was ok but overall lots of industrial, trash and homelessness. They need to get volunteers or businesses to signup to maintain the area. One of the bridges you go under had so much trash and smell it was pretty bad.
We parked at the Edmondson Trail head and road Pikes Peak Greenway Trail to the Sand Creek Trail and road that trail to the Panoramic Park and then returned to Edmondson Trail Head. It was a total of 35.5 miles. We saw several deer and the trail was really enjoyable. Once you pass America the Beautiful park it gets a little sketchy at times due to the homelessness and trash along the trail. Parts of it was still nice but several places there were large groups of homelessness. Only one lady was a little loud and harassing the bikers. When we ride it again we will turn around at America the Beautiful
We rode our tandem from GW springs to Aspen and back and had a great time. This is a well maintained trail with beautiful scenery. Strava stats were 83 miles and 3100 vertical feet.
We started downtown and rode out 25 miles and back. Lots invested in this concrete trail and well maintained.
