So, You Wanna Walk the Walk (or Run the Run) Around Wash Park? We Got You Covered (in Miles)
Wash Park, Denver's crown jewel (or should we say "emerald necklace," considering all those leafy trees?), is a haven for both weekend warriors and casual strollers. But before you lace up your neon sneakers (because safety and style, duh!), a burning question might be nagging at you: just how far is that loop around the whole park?
The Great Wash Park Perimeter Mystery: Unveiled!
Fear not, fellow adventurer! The answer, my friend, is not blowing in the wind (although that Denver breeze can be a doozy). The perimeter of Wash Park clocks in at a neat 2.5 miles. That's a perfectly manageable distance for a walk, a jog, a leisurely scooter ride while pretending you're in a European vacation montage (don't judge, we've all been there).

But Wait, There's More (Like, More Mileage Options)!
Now, hold on to your metaphorical hats (or actual hats, because Denver sun, am I right?), because Wash Park offers more than just one perimeter path. Here's a quick breakdown for the meticulous measurers among us:
QuickTip: Reread for hidden meaning.
- The Classic Outer Loop: This dirt path rings the entire park, offering a scenic 2.6-mile journey. Perfect for those who want a slightly more adventurous walk with some bonus views of the neighborhood's architectural gems (because who doesn't love a little house-ogling on their fitness journey?).
- The Paved Path Paradise: The inner loop is a smooth, 2.3-mile paved path ideal for runners, cyclists, and anyone who appreciates a comfortable stroll. Bonus points for dodging fewer rogue squirrels on this route.
- The Lake Life: Feeling less ambitious? No worries! There are also separate loops around Smith Lake (0.65 miles) and Grassmere Lake (0.8 miles) for those who prefer a shorter, more meditative walk. You can even channel your inner poet and pretend you're on a romantic stroll around a Parisian lake (again, with the Denver twist of probably needing sunglasses).
