Course Name: Boulder Creek from Eben G. Fine Park to Chapman Trailhead and Back
Distance: 6.0 miles
Elevation Gain: 404 feet
Fishable Waterbody: Boulder Creek, Boulder, CO
Course Description: This Boulder Creek FKF course is a point-to-point paved and gravel trail that winds it way through the city of Boulder, CO along Boulder Creek, and ends at Chapman Trailhead in Boulder Canyon. The fishing on this path gets better as you head West from the City of Boulder to Boulder Canyon, yet lots of great pools and holes exist to find monster brown and rainbow trout. It has a relatively low grade and is a popular local trail. Starting at the bridge that crosses Boulder Creek in Eben G. Fine park, this course winds its way along Boulder Creek and its associated canyon, eventually switching from concrete to gravel, and passes a huge amount of fishable water. The fishing is great, competitive, and lots of fun.
