Pikes Peak Greenway ride or long walk
A long north-south trail spine that turns 'a walk' into 'an afternoon' whenever you want it to.
The greenway links parks and neighborhoods along the creek corridor, so you can start almost anywhere and choose your distance by how long you keep going.
It is the best local option for a low-stress bike ride that isn't on roads.
Sections can be affected by construction and weather damage; check current trail status before a long outing.
