Community members of Larimer and Weld counties will soon be able to travel the Poudre River Trail all the way from Bellvue to Greeley once a 40-year vision of a regional paved trail is complete in early 2025.
The trail, beloved by bikers, joggers and other recreators, began in localized segments decades ago and has gradually expanded over the years with the ultimate vision of connecting northern Colorado communities located along the Poudre River.
This 4.4-mile, multi-use concrete, multi-use, non-motorized trail opened on August 18, 2018, with a ribbon cutting by elected officials and staff from Larimer County, City of Loveland and City of Fort Collins.
The 2-mile, multi-use Colorado Front Range Trail - Loveland to Fort Collins Connection opened on November 14, 2017. The trail connects Loveland's Recreation Trail with Fort Collins' Fossil Creek Trail, between Lemay Avenue and Timberline Road.
