Features:
The Yampa River Core Trail is the heart of running in Steamboat Springs. The paved, fairly flat multi-use path runs for 6 miles along the Yampa River. It’s the best bet in Steamboat Springs for a longer, easier off-road run. There are several access points and a couple of spurs that add to the trail. TRAIL MAP
