Bike Colorado Springs,
the calm way.

The Pikes Peak Greenway runs right through downtown, with the Sand Creek, Rock Island and Cottonwood Creek trails off to the east and north. The hard part is the busy roads in between — Trazo plans a low-stress route that connects them, or a distance loop from your door.

The guide

Riding Colorado Springs

Colorado Springs has a real trail backbone — creeks and old rail lines turned into paved paths — but it's split up by wide, fast roads and I-25. Here's the backbone, and Trazo finds the calm connections between the pieces.

~13 MI

Pikes Peak Greenway

The north–south spine along Monument and Fountain Creeks, straight through downtown and America the Beautiful Park.

~10 MI

Sand Creek Trail

The east side's north–south trail along Sand Creek.

~10 MI

Rock Island Trail

An old rail line turned east–west path across the city's east side.

NORTH SIDE

Cottonwood Creek Trail

A creek trail through the north side, with park connections along the way.

Why Trazo

Built for riders who'd rather not gamble on traffic

Every street and path is graded for how calm and connected it really is — so the route you get is one you'll actually enjoy.

See what's protected

Trails, lanes, and quiet streets are color-graded by stress level — cool means calm, red means watch out.

Loops by distance

Want a 12-mile ride? Get loops that hit your target and bring you back home, not an out-and-back you have to reverse.

Busy-crossing alerts

The map flags uncontrolled crossings — busy roads with no signal — so nothing catches you off guard.

Elevation-aware

See the climb before you commit, and flip on “prefer flat” when you (or the kids) aren't in the mood for hills.

How it works

From “where do I even ride?” to rolling in three steps

Set your start & destination

Search an address, drop a pin, or use your location. Or pick “Loop ride” and just set a distance.

Pick your comfort level

Kid-friendly, relaxed, or anything-goes. Trazo biases the route toward protected paths to match — and you can drag the line to add a stop.

Ride it

Follow turn-by-turn with voice cues, see your elevation profile, find pit stops along the way, or export a GPX.
