Trail users can enjoy views of the snow-topped Rocky Mountain Front Range as they follow the path’s namesake river through wooded groves and farmland.

Rodeos and concerts at the Greeley Stampede

Every summer, Island Grove hosts the Greeley Stampede, one of the city’s most popular events. “The stampede brings in thousands of locals and visitors every year,” says Chuck Bowles, a Greeley local and associate broker with Austin & Austin Real Estate. “People who grew up here and moved away come back every year for the stampede. It’s almost like a huge class reunion.” The event has rodeos, carnival rides, dozens of food vendors and concerts with popular artists ranging from Toby Keith to Barenaked Ladies. The park also hosts the annual Weld County Fair, which hosts livestock displays, art shows and more, held the last week of July.
