Confirmed from Saint Vrain Greenway'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.

Paths are a bit muddy with a LOT of goose poop. Otherwise, lovely and scenic, and the restrooms are clean.
Good times, City of Longmont, please reconnect the trail near Left-hand Brewery
The green way is kept up very nicely. Even in the winter its plowed and ready for a walk, run, or bike ride. It's always good to find some peace and relaxation.
We can get lost for a few hours! Doggy walking! Redwing blackbirds. Great paths tick warning! No smoking 👊🏼 Mosquito Haven? They don’t like smoke!
