With the official arrival of spring next week, a new section of trail in Clear Creek Canyon featuring soaring rock walls and cascading rapids is beckoning Front Range runners, cyclists, walkers and families with baby strollers.⁠ ⁠ The trail in Clear Creek Canyon Park, located just west of Golden, is part of the Jefferson County Open Space system. The trail now extends 3.25 miles up the canyon, following the opening of a 1.5-mile extension in November.⁠ ⁠ The trail also connects with the long-established Clear Creek Trail east of the Gateway Trailhead, which passes through downtown Golden and extends all the way to the South Platte River in Adams County.⁠ ⁠ Read more at the link in our bio. ⁠ ⁠ 📝: John Meyer, The Denver Post⁠ 📷: Hyoung Chang, The Denver Post // hyoung_ccc⁠ ⁠ #Colorado #Golden #trails #hiking #ClearCreekCanyon #outdoors #optoutside
