Loveland is ringed by its own paved loop — the Recreation Trail circles the city past the Big Thompson, the lakes, and the parks — and the Long View Trail runs north to Fort Collins. Plan a low-stress route or a distance loop.
Loveland's trail system is built around one big idea: a paved loop that goes all the way around town. Hop on anywhere and you can reach the lakes, the parks, and downtown without riding a busy road. Here's the backbone.
The spine — a 21-mile paved loop around the whole city, following the Big Thompson River on the south side and swinging past the lakes and parks on the way around.
The paved link north across the open space between the two towns — the calm way to ride Loveland to Fort Collins without the highway.
The big lake on the east side — the Recreation Trail runs along it, and the state park makes a natural turnaround for an easy out-and-back.
The lake right in the middle of town — a short, flat ride from downtown, with North Lake Park and the sculpture garden close by.
Breweries, parks, and stops along Loveland's trails and calm streets.

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.
Trails, lanes, and quiet streets are color-graded by stress level — cool means calm, red means watch out.
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.
The map flags uncontrolled crossings — busy roads with no signal — so nothing catches you off guard.
See the climb before you commit, and flip on “prefer flat” when you (or the kids) aren't in the mood for hills.
Search an address, drop a pin, or use your location. Or pick “Loop ride” and just set a distance.
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.
