I used to ride this everyday. It is amazing as you pass through the city unencumbered by traffic. However it is very busy with other riders, walkers, skaters, and watch out for strollers. You need to keep your speed down if it is busy. But busy helps make it safe.

This bike bath is quite unique because at least some parts of it have the bikers and the walkers separated so both can travel without problems. The landscaping is exceptional and there is easy access to all local attractions.

Made the mistake of going for a walk on a Sunday, near Cherry Creek Shopping Center, and on the only sunny day in a while. Could barely carry on a conversation without being constantly interrupted with "On your left" or as one doofus said, "On your right." People race along this path and grrrumble when they have to slow down... More

Hiked 9 miles on this path and saw the huge REI and Mile High Stadium from this Cherry Creek Trail that followed Cherry Creek and the South Platte River!

Denver has the best connected bike paths in the country. If you like to bike or rollerblade or walk great system of bike paths. Some are hilly so if you are a flatlander take heed

Central bike path understandably busy but connects to everywhere. My favorite is the Clear Creek trail to the North then west to Golden. Up Monument Hill for a climb or circle back through the new trail on 13th ave light rail. Easy connections to Chatfield or Cherry Creek Reservoir to the South.

We are impressed by the whole thing. The path is divided into walkers and bikes and roller blades, so there is no yelling at walkers to get out of the way. It is clean and safe, and there are many little pavilions with sculptures and seating areas along the creek. I recommend bringing a picnic

In Colorado bicyclists believe they have the right-of-way over pedestrians. While mororists must yield at least 3' of clearence to bikes, bicyclists have no such responsibility to pedestrians. Bicyclists seem to consider pedestrians to be slolom flags at best and more typicaly as just a nusence. The high rate of speed, pack mentality, and disregard for the convience and safety... More

The greater Denver area has lots of paved bicycle paths thru greenways (typically following a creek). The Cherry Creek Bike Trail is one of the longest. It is downhill all the way from Cherry Creek Reservoir to Confluence Park. About 95% of this trail is thru a greenway beside the creek, with only a mile or so on City sidewalks.... More
