Cherry Creek at the Confluence

Why go

At the mouth of Cherry Creek, you can see how a smaller waterway joins the river beside downtown. The creek also gives its name to a much longer corridor across the city, but this stop is specifically the junction. Pair it with the park's bridges for a clear view of both channels.

What to look for

• Cherry Creek entering the South Platte River
• The creekside trail near its downtown mouth

Useful to know

• Approach through Confluence Park to see the creek mouth and river together.
• Stay on the trail or park paths; do not plan this as a swimming stop.
