This is a beautiful, easy little trail. I head up here with the dog for a loop while my clothes are on the dryer cycle at Cozy Cleaners down the street. The dam is gorgeous, and the little park area they installed there makes it so welcoming and fun to hang out in. The trail around the lake is pretty flat, and there are garbage cans everywhere – use ‘em! I love the trees at the south and west ends of the lake. So many fishing lures stuck in the trees. Blows for the environment, but it makes it look like Christmas year round! This lake is an active place all times of the year, and you are almost sure to see some cool bird or some elk here. Love it.

Great walk. Ice skating and ice hockey when the lake is frozen over. Lots of elk out here. Hard to come And not see them. Also saw my First eagle while walking around the lake. If you’re anywhere near the area, surely come through here before or after wandering the downtown area. Lots of hidden gems.

When I need a breath of fresh air I love to come walk by the Evergreen Lake Trail. This time as I walked by the damn a small herd of Elk were in the water hanging out. There are sculptures and gardens near the damn. They even have a pink porte potty on the lake trail. I haven’t seen that one before. It’s a great place to come for a walk. The Evergreen lake has fishing, paddleboat, canoe rentals and paddleboard rentals in the summer. It’s a wonderful place to pack a picnic lunch and enjoy the views. It’s beautiful and I always love a peaceful walk around the beautiful Evergreen lake. (The part of the trail near the road is still damaged and closed due to the flood damage as of October 1st, 2013. Hopefully it reopens soon.

A short and picturesque drive from Denver is Evergreen Lake. Renting of paddle boats and bringing boogie boards here for some water fun is taken advantage of by those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of Denver. There is a well kept trail that circles the entire lake where kids, furry friends, and adults enjoy the mountain views and sunny days. The walk is easily done and is flip flop friendly as the BF says. A few places to picnic or sit down along the path is an added convenience. You can easily complete the path in about an hour or a little longer depending how leisurely you like to stroll. I love having place like Evergreen so close to Denver. Little day trips to the surrounding areas are a lot of fun and can add some spice to a Holiday weekend.
