Overview

This offroad trail has become the "go-to spot" for hard wheeling within a short drive from Denver. Spring Creek offers a true rock crawling experience with several major obstacles and constant large boulders that will leave your undercarriage riddled with rock-rash scars. The trail is a popular place to visit on weekends and is a common trail to run multiple times a year as it changes often, with new boulders becoming exposed and old boulders finding new resting spots after each season of use. If you are looking for a challenging trail without a full-day commitment, Spring Creek is a great option.
