Parker Jordan Centennial Open Space

Lovely causal trail that was paved with cement. Plenty of parking in the lot , restrooms, covered patio picnic tables. Paved trail good for those with electric or manual mobility devices. However, one star removed for the dangerous bikers who need to be more careful and less aggressive in their speeds. I come from a beach area with PED lanes and bike only lanes . And Bikers were highly encouraged to know better ! I always biked with regards to speeds and safety of walkers. Every biker that was on the same shared path at this trail zoomed at top speeds without disregard to walkers. I constantly checked behind me but some corners don't let you see what is that far away. Bikers who clearly see in front of them , need to slow down! I can only imagine the accidents to those who have earphones in. The trail is 9 miles , I only did one mile up and back. I had come to make videos for one of my many young Godsons to show the actions and speed of a requested RC car. There was a gravel flat area near the picnic benches perfect to do so. I'll definitely be coming back to CAREFULLY ride bikes ;)

What a fun place to get out and active! I've passed by this open space so many times when I go to Target at Arapahoe and Parker and always wondered what it was. So I drove over the other day and parked in a little parking lot across from the 24 Hour Fitness and got to walking and running. This loops up with the Cherry Creek Trail and there were people walking, cycling, hanging out with their dogs and such. There isn't a lot of shade so bring a hat and some SPF if you're going to be out for awhile. I ran for about four miles but look forward to coming back here again when the weather is consistently nice and exploring some more!

Like this trail a lot. Flat; dirt and cement trails; 5+ miles next to Cherry Creek. Great for a leisurely stroll or jog. Nice scenery.
