Looking for a new recreational trail loop in the South Metro Denver area? Thanks to an impressive network of trails maintained by the South Suburban Parks and Recreation District, you can easily connect segments of the High Line Canal, Mineral Trail, Mary Carter Greenway and Lee Gulch Trail to create a perfect 7.25-mile loop. You will experience the South Platte Riverfront, wooded Littleton neighborhoods, and an original, historic High Line Canal flume, all while taking in dramatic views of the Front Range.

This loop is mostly flat with a number of potential starting locations: Writers Vista Park, Reynolds Landing Park or the Carson Nature Center. We suggest starting at the Carson Nature Center so you can stop by the South Metro Land Conservancy’s Stampede for Open Space on Saturday, August 13th, where we’ll be from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm.

Activity: Running, Walking, Cycling

Distance: 7.25 Miles
