Douglas is a small town with Old West charm about 45 minutes west of Casper. The city sits on the North Platte River, which forms the focal point for a concrete multiuse trail. The trail traces the the river from north to south. Walkers, joggers, skaters and cyclists share the riverside path.
You can park at Heritage Trail Park on West Yellowstone Highway. You can also park at the Bob Williamson Park lot just off West Richards Street across from Douglas Middle School.
We went for an early morning ride on this pretty bike path that winds along the wide and beautiful North Platte. The path has a few gaps but is easy to find with the Rails to Trails app. It was nice to see the smiling faces of locals, who waved as we passed. No masks, which was fine. This trail, which is EAST of Casper (write up on site had this wrong), will probably be extended as Douglas expands. New houses are going up along the north side of the path.
