Just discovered this place and absolutely Beatiful to walk, walk your pup, fish or just chill. Hard to believe the highway is so close but yet you don't any cars at all. It's like you step through time and visit a totally different place, it's surreal. An absolute awesome place in Fort Collins and very relaxing places to kill a few hours and just relax.

Neat place. I walked it once. A wilderness escape just outside city limits.

Such a wonderful, scenic place. You'd never know you're right in the middle of a busy town. Lots of wildlife, even on a cold, windy day.

I love walking here at the end of the day. Pretty chill and easy. The people on trail are friendly and you can bring dogs. There were even kids going around and collecting trash last time I went!

Has one seen anyone rattle snakes there in the summertime?

RARE but yes. Many years ago. Not recently. Mostly bull snakes at Riverbend ponds. But even those are few and far between. Riverbend has too many cool birds of prey to have a snake problem.

Want to visit but pulling a fifth wheel, parking lot big enough?

Maneuvering will be difficult and you may get stuck. I would park along the street in the same turn out/neighborhood. Alternatively, Kingfisher Pond (I think is the name of it?), is on the West side of Timberline Road, just to the South, across the bridge, and *that* parking lot *is* big enough and it is attached to Riverbend.
