Love this trail. Follows the creek along an easy and comfortable trail. Stop at the Library for a visit. Or, visit Pearl Street and get back on the trail.

It's hard to pull yourself out of the mountains to take a walk in Boulder's long, linear park, but if you are interested in a city making great use of natural features, then take a walk on the Boulder Creek Path. There is a trout fishing training pond for kids under 13!

I road this path on a beach cruiser that I got free with my hotel rental. It had scenery, easy grade, great network for joggers, bikers, etc... very well laid out and nicely marked with appropriate designated "lanes." This path along with all the others in and out of the city solidifies Boulder as one of the best bike towns.

Some parts of the path are nicer than others. There is a stream observatory near the Millenium Hotel that is filthy...glass needs to be cleaned. It was impossible to observe anything.

Very family friendly short hike with nice views of canyon and city. Kids can scamper up the rocks along the way. I'd recommend!

Recently stayed four nights at the Harvest House in Boulder, which is adjacent to the BCP on 28th, so I was able to get three great morning runs in during my stay. The first morning I was out early, around 5:30 am, so it was dark. Headed west up the path towards the foothills, until I was surrounded by the... More

I like to visit Boulder in the winter time and the Creek path is the best place if you want to walk and enjoy the magic Path.

Ive never seen more homeless trash on a bike pass in my life. Drugs and homeless make this path filthy and unsafe, clean it up Boulder

The Boulder Creek path runs right through Boulder and also goes out into the outskirts east and west, all with a flat path and good views. It is great to walk on and to ride on. The red bikes (Boulder B Cycle) that one can rent and ride from one station to another are perfect. This is a fun 1... More
