## Details
TYPE: Walk | PACE: Moderate | TERRAIN: Dirt & Paved | DISTANCE: Approx. 3-4 miles.
Join us for a scenic and art-filled loop along the St. Vrain Creek in Lyons. We'll start at Bohn Park, gazebo by the skate park, and meander past a series of local gems: the vibrant Clarifier Community Mosaic, the Lyons Whitewater Park (home of the annual kayak competition), a peaceful labyrinth, and the charming Rocky Mountain Botanic Gardens. Expect a mix of paved paths and mellow dirt trails as we enjoy the creative, natural, and flowing spirit of Lyons.
Post-walk/lunch stop: Due to the overwhelming success of this walk, I am going to modify things a bit and move this to a picnic. We will find a nice shady spot by the river and share some food. People can feel free to bring snacks, blankets, or go find some good in town and come back.
