Basic Directions
West of Denver, off of Interstate 70, take the Bakerville exit (221). The trailhead is on the south side of the interstate to the right of a large parking area.
Description
The trail parallels the interstate yet you never even notice the highway traffic. The sound of Clear Creek flowing along the trail drowns out the zooming of vehicles and the trees along the creek bank obstruct the view of civilization. The Bakerville/Loveland Trail is excellent for hiking, bicycling, and cross-country skiing.
