The Lee Gulch Trail is a popular 4.7 mile dirt trail in Littleton, Colorado. It starts just west of Santa Fe Drive near the South Platte River Trail and ends near South Clarkson Street. It connects with several other trails, parks, and schools making it a popular area to explore both on foot and bike.
I parked in the Reynolds Landing parking lot just off Santa Fe Drive and made my way north to start the trail! It is a gradual climb towards the southeast which I definitely enjoyed on the way back! There are numerous parks along the trail to stop at and/or make your turnaround point including Lower Ridgewood, St Mary, Charley Emley, Ashbaugh, Carbone, just to name a few!
