There is a gravel trail from Greenland through Palmer Lake, the Air Force Academy, Colorado Springs and Fountain. The New Santa Fe Trail.

There is a dirt road connecting a paved road from Larkspur (which goes to Monument) to the Greenland Trailhead.

There are a variety of ways to get to Larkspur.

There are a whole bunch of Denver Metro Area riders here, we have our own "thread".
