Nearly 50 miles of hard surface Greater Cheyenne Greenway trail is available for residents and visitors to ride, walk, run, or scoot. While enjoying the Greenway, the City would like to remind users of several rules and safety tips:

  • Pedestrians, traditional bikes, Class 1 and 2 E-Bikes (rated at 20 mph or less), kids and commuter type e-scooters (rated at 20 mph or less) and other power-driven mobility devices (rated at 20 mph or less) are allowed on all areas of the Greenway system.
  • No gasoline-powered vehicles like motorcycles or ATVs are allowed on the Greenway except for approved maintenance vehicles.
  • The speed limit is 15 mph. Users should reduce speed when entering underpasses and going around blind corners.
  • Be mindful of other users and stay to the right when using the path. Remember, users may be approaching from behind. When passing from behind, pass on the left and let others know you are there with an audible call out or ring of a bike bell. 
  • Bikes and scooters should yield to pedestrians at intersections, sidewalks, and trails. All trail users should yield to people with disabilities.
  • Dogs must be on a leash, and please, don’t block the trail with an extended leash. Use pet waste stations to keep the trail and adjacent areas clean.
  • At road intersections, stop and make sure motorists see you before you enter traffic. Make eye contact and give a friendly wave when they stop.
  • Riding the Greenway at night requires lights. Use a white light in front and a red reflector in the back.
  • Greenway underpasses tend to be in flood prone areas and may be hazardous in inclement weather so be careful and use underpasses at your own risk.
  • All users should keep safety in mind and be considerate of other users.
