Trails are easy to find in Colorado, but boardwalk trails? Not so much. Fortunately, we do have a handful of these meandering boardwalk trails in Colorado, including this unique and charming one that meanders through the wetlands near the beautiful Yampa River:
Welcome to the Rotary Park Boardwalk!
Located in Steamboat Springs, the Rotary Park Boardwalk is a short (approximately 15 to 30 minutes, depending on how long you meander!) and sweet trail that is accessible for guests of all ages.
Following the Wetlands along the Yampa River, the Rotary Park Boardwalk gives visitors an up-close look at this diverse area and its trees, plants, and native wildlife.
If you are an angler, it will also give you an up-close look at the River's biggest and best fish.
Keep your eyes peeled - you never know who or what you will see during your hike!
In addition to the Boardwalk, this Rotary Park trail also features picnic benches, interpretive signs, grills, and easy access to the Yampa River.
After you walk the Boardwalk, be sure to take some time to explore the picturesque mountain town of Steamboat Springs: a once vital Ute hunting area turned trapper settlement turned ski community that boasts some of the best outdoor recreation, shopping, and dining in the state!
