Confluence Park: Denver's Ultimate Riverfront Destination for Adventure and Relaxation

Confluence Park: Denver s Ultimate Riverfront Destination for Adventure and Relaxation

At the confluence of Cherry Creek and the South Platte River, Confluence Park serves as the heart of Denver's vibrant outdoor culture. Thousands of locals and visitors gather here to unwind and enjoy water activities during warm summer days.

Tubing and Kayaking

Confluence Park offers a picturesque backdrop for an afternoon picnic, complete with a compact white-water park ideal for kayakers and tubers. No need to transport your own gear—rent everything you need from Confluence Kayaks, located across from the Downtown Aquarium. Their friendly, knowledgeable staff provides expert advice on local whitewater conditions and beginner lessons in their indoor pool or at nearby Chatfield Reservoir.

A small beach and shallow waters provide a safe, fun spot for kids to splash, play, and build sandcastles.

Hiking and Biking

Follow the Cherry Creek Trail south to reach Cherry Creek Reservoir. Head southwest on the Platte Trail for a scenic ride to Chatfield Reservoir, or go north via the Clear Creek Trail toward Golden. For a cooler escape, hop aboard the Denver Trolley for a relaxing riverside journey.

Nearby Shopping and Dining

Stroll the Cherry Creek Trail to Cherry Creek Shopping Center, Denver's premier upscale destination featuring luxury brands like Louis Vuitton, Burberry, Ralph Lauren, and Tiffany, anchored by Neiman Marcus.

Families can enjoy the on-site movie theater and indoor play area for air-conditioned relief, plus diverse dining from quick bites at Panda Express to upscale Tuscan cuisine at Brio.
