Print Friendly MapThe South Boulder Creek Trail cuts through its namesake town of Boulder, Colorado. At the southern end of the route, the trail skirts the South Campus of the University of Colorado Boulder and then heads north unil it connects to the Valmont Multi-Use Path and the Boulder Creek Path.
Trail users for the South Boulder Creek Trail can park at the East Boulder Community Park, near the southern end of the route.
Our family took a springtime bike ride on the southern section of the South Boulder Creek Trail from the Bobolink Trailhead on Baseline Road south to just beyond the US 36 underpass (roughly 3 miles one way). It was a pleasant outing with gorgeous mountain views and rural countryside. We saw a few birds, a couple horses, and lots of cows (including calves). The trail surface was a mix of pavement and crushed stone; both well maintained. On a sunny Saturday afternoon, we saw lots of other bikers, joggers, dogwalkers, and families out enjoying the trail.
