The water was extremely high and fast flowing because of all the snow and rain we have gotten so make sure to watch your little ones and pets. This trail does have an option that is paved and wheelchair friendly however there is limit shade. The scenery is absolutely beautiful. No tubing or prospecting allowed.

My girls have loved playing with the ice and snow along the river during the winters. The whole area is beautiful and clean, and still doesn't feel overwhelming even when it's busy.

There also has a hikers only section that you can access by crossing over the bridges to get to the other side of the river from the parking lot. In the summer time this is a popular spot to come to go tubing down clear creek into Golden! There are also sections for rock climbing. If you happen to come on a busy day there is more parking by the Tunnel 1 trailhead.

Even though many on AllTrails said the trail was fine within the past few days, it was clearly iced over today. No worries, as we had our spikes with us. Well, one worry, as one of my wife's spikes decided to sabotage our day and start to tear. After fighting with it for 30 mins or so, we abandoned our attempts to continue on the trail. Other than today, the Evergreen Mountain Trail is one of our favorites in Colorado. The views from the top are amazing. I can't recommend it enough; however, if you're going this time of year, take your spikes...you'll need them.

Happy to add photos and a review to Centennial Cone Park's Yelp page since it's clearly overlooked!…read moreThis is a easy and viable option for hiking really close to Denver. Yesterday we took some out-of-towners here and they thoroughly enjoyed putting in nine miles at Centennial Cone's big open space. I had never been here until yesterday either. Though not the most breathtaking of views, this would be a great trail [Travois Trail Loop] for dogs. Especially considering it's not too crowded on weekends. A small parking lot and working bathroom greet you at the trailhead. The entire loop is 13 miles. We opted to do 4.5 miles there and back. Pretty much when you get to a wooden bridge. There were Aspens in peak Fall form, though not as many as we had hoped for. There's two significant look out points where you grasp how large the Continental Divide is. I think the space might be "too open" to discover any wildlife. The most important thing to note is this: On weekends, hiking is allowed on odd-numbered days, while mountain biking is allowed on even-numbered days. You'll discover why when you hit the narrow trail. Overall, solid hike yesterday. Windy, cool and sunny. Wear your sunscreen!

The foothills rising along the far side of the creek were beautiful, and there were many young families enjoying the beautiful weather and kids splashing in the creek. We saw several people fly fishing, people picnicking at several tables, and a bunch of happy dogs. Map signs of the park indicated that there are more difficult hiking trails available. After our visit we had a terrific lunch at the lovely Blackbird Cafe in Kittredge, about a mile to the west.

I'd like to start this review with a statement. I don't use Yelp to just leave negative reviews. If…read moreyou check, you can see that my reviews have all been positive ones. This park claims that it is accessible. Reality is...I'm not an able bodied person. I use a walker/rollator to help me get around. Without it, I might as well be in a wheelchair. With it I can navigate the local stores and activities. This park has some accessible parking spots. One in each lot. There is a break in the fence wide enough for a wheelchair to make it through. But in reality no wheelchair will be able to access the pit toilets available for use here. You have to enter through a half door that can swing back and forth and then make a sharp turn to access the toilet. No regular wheelchair could make that turn. You'd have to have one of those electric scooters that can turn on a dime. But to even get to the bathrooms you have to make it out of the loose dirt and rocky parking lot. Then maneuver the uneven dirt/grass ground to the bathrooms. My rollator walker didn't stand a chance to even make it to the bathrooms let alone anywhere else in the park I couldn't access with our car. My husband looked up this place after our daughter came here on a school outing and loved it. He saw that it is listed as accessible, but the truth is, it is not. I wanted to make sure anyone who is disabled or injured could read my review and make a decision based on it. I gave the park a rating of two because my husband and daughter still enjoyed themselves. My husband isn't super able bodied (he uses a cane), so by using his walking/hiking poles he could get around nicely.
