The Cherry Creek Regional Trail offers a unique road cycling experience, guiding you from Denver's urban core into serene natural landscapes. You'll follow the Cherry Creek waterway, enjoying views of cottonwood trees, grasslands, and the impressive Cherry Creek Reservoir. This moderate 35.5-mile (57.1 km) route, with 774 feet (236 metres) of elevation gain, is mostly paved and takes about 2 hours and 54 minutes, making it a fantastic option for a longer, accessible ride.
Accessing the trail is easy, with many entry and exit points along its length. Trailheads often provide convenient parking, restrooms, and bike amenities. While the path is primarily for road cycling, it's a multi-use trail, so expect to share it with others. If your route takes you through Cherry Creek State Park, be sure to check for any required cycling permit fees.
This trail is a significant regional asset, connecting downtown Denver all the way to Franktown. Its varied scenery, from city parks to open natural spaces, provides a diverse experience that sets it apart. It also links to other major regional trails like the Highline Canal and the Platte River Trail, offering even more exploration opportunities.
