Poudre River Trail

The Poudre River Trail is 21 miles of a well maintained paved pathway for walking, cycling, running, roller-blading and more. The trail extends from Island Grove Regional Park in Greeley to Colorado Highway 392 in Windsor where it connects to the paved trail in Larimer County's River Bluff's Open Space. The trail is open to the public and includes informational signs that highlight many of the historical sites and educational opportunities to visit along our trail.

"Hi, my name is Penelope la Poudre, the Porcupine.

I am the Poudre River Trail Mascot."

The Poudre River Trail was built through a cooperative effort between the City of Greeley, the Town of Windsor and Weld County Colorado and with grants from Great Outdoors Colorado, Colorado State Trails and North Front Range MPO, with matching contributions from local foundations, individuals and businesses.

The trail is located about 50 miles North of Denver and 2.5 miles East of Interstate 25 just South and roughly parallel with Colorado Highway 392.For more than 15 years, Poudre River Trail Corridor, Inc., a local non-profit, has managed a cooperative effort with the City of Greeley, the Town of Windsor and Weld County to develop the Poudre River Trail.

Poudre River Trail Board of Directors

The Poudre River Trail Corridor Board was created by the City of Greeley, Weld County, and the Town of Windsor via an intergovernmental agreement. This board was then incorporated into the Poudre River Trail Corridor Inc. in January of 1997.

This group of volunteers and staff from the member governments put forth countless hours to coordinate construction projects, land acquisitions, fundraising efforts, and community education programs about the trail. Without the dedication of those involved in PRTC Inc. the Poudre Trail would not be the incredible trail you see today.
