Confirmed from Fronterra Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

“The park was clean and family friendly.”

Fronterra Park is a 20 acre neighborhood park located in the northern area of Commerce City. It was constructed in 2015. The park is beautiful with lots of open grass area to play. There are two play structures, one for children 2yrs. to 5yrs. of age and the other for children 5yrs to 12 yrs of age.

★★★★★ — Playground , Jul 2021

Great park. Side is marked with markers so you know how long you have run or walked. Clean and well kept. Lots of play ground equipment for kids. Skate board area for teens.

★★★★★ — Eric , Jan 2017

Great neighborhood park with a huge grassy open space area, distance marked walking paths, 2 playground areas, half court basketball, small skate park. Just added a 9 hole Disc golf course complete with nice hole signs and 2 baskets per hole, easy and challenging.

★★★★★ — Brandon , Mar 2024

Great park. Well kept and pretty clean for being across the street from a middle school. My kids love playing there and I can get a workout in on the circular running path.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.

“Well designed park, with children's play area, covered picnic table area, restrooms, and large central grass field.”
