Confluence Park

Clean & long walking path. Many people use it - joggers, cyclists, people walking their dogs. It's very popular. Appears to be safe during the day but I wouldn't use it at night.

This place is absolutely gorgeous and a great place to cool off in the hot summer days of Denver it's free an usually not all that many people there it has a lil beach part shallow water for younger kids to play in also plenty of local restaurants close by for some good food the water is super clean an clear there is parking close so not to long of a walk plus lime bikes an scooters all over my girls had a blast there plus very dog friendly for your fury friends I definitely recommend a stop if your in the area

Confluence Park in Denver is a vibrant urban spot where Cherry Creek meets the South Platte River. It’s great for kayaking, biking, picnics, and enjoying city views with a touch of nature. The park can get crowded, parking is limited, and water quality varies, but its mix of trails, green space, and downtown access makes it a must-visit.

We found this beautiful park when we went for a 10km walk/scooter adventure from our hotel one morning in August. Very clean. Never felt intimidated by homelessness or others. The architecture of the local buildings and the design of the river in this area was exceptional!
