The Highline Canal Trail is 71 miles long and weaves throughout the greater Denver area. You can access maps of the trail online to see where trail heads can be accessed.
My favorite resource for trails to walk or hike is an APP called, ALL TRAILS. The app is free and will show you trails wherever you are in the world and rate them according to difficulty.
