South Boulder Creek Path

Flat, paved multi-use path — 6.7 miles one way, 167 ft total gain. Starts at the Bobolink Trailhead (Baseline & Cherryvale) and follows South Boulder Creek through open space to the CU East Campus / Research Park. Wide, well-maintained, minimal road crossings. Perfect for beginners, recovery spins (Zone 1-2 only, conversation pace), and clip-in practice. The cottonwood-lined corridor stays sheltered from Boulder's afternoon northwest winds.
