A confluence of a dirty river meeting another, with a few rocks to create a multi-leveled rapids for 5 seconds, then continues on as a lazy river. Barely even a park- there are a couple aging metal tables overlooking the confluence/rapids, which is nice to look at for a few minutes, but not worth the time/effort to get there. Maybe this was better and more well attended at one time, but it's trending towards sketchy.

Lovely park next to the river, a welcome oasis after the busy city. Plenty of cafes, seats and other attractions around. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

Good size urban park. Very walkable. Lots of places to sit and watch people, dogs, the water passing by. Can ride a bike or stroll, or have a picnic.

You are in the city but out of it at the same time. It's an easy walk from the very touristy 16th St. mall or you can take a free trolly. There's a great walking trail and a REI store nearby. Some people were even splashing in the water. Loved the ambiance

My husband and I were visiting Denver and after a quic breakfast at a local coffee shop, we headed to Confluence Park. It was easy to find parking nearby and we walked down to the REI side. We had a great time sitting and watching all the families playing in the water with their kids and/or their dogs! With the Starbucks nearby, we walked up to get a drink and then headed across the bridge to check out the other side. It's a great place for a walk, to exercise, to bring your dog and kids, or to spend a quiet while watching the water flowing by.
