The Sand Creek Regional Greenway (SCRG) is a nearly 13-mile trail and wildlife corridor connecting Commerce City, Denver, and Aurora. The SCRG serves as a vital east/west connection between the Platte River Trail and the High Line Canal.
The SCRG is wilderness in the city - and maintains a native ecosystem along Sand Creek. It serves as an accessible nature experience for the many diverse communities living in the northeast metro Denver area.
In the early-1990s, Stapleton Airport closed and three cities, Commerce City, Denver, and Aurora, recognized the potential to develop a greenway along the main waterway in this region, Sand Creek.
The Sand Creek Regional Greenway Partnership (SCRGP) is a 501c3 that was originally formed because the city partners and neighbors wanted the Sand Creek Greenway to be a regional park area with a similar look and feel in all the jurisdictions.
Today, the SCRGP focuses it efforts on the equitable access, awareness, and engagement of the SCRG.
