Sawhill Ponds Trailhead Project

Visitors can access the Sawhill Ponds Trail loop during the trailhead closure through the Walden Ponds Wildlife Habitat trailhead and the Walden Ponds Trail to the north. Walden Ponds is managed by Boulder County Parks & Open Space and subject to county regulations.

Planned OSMP improvements at the Sawhill Ponds Trailhead include:

• a new nature discovery area to help youth experience the outdoors in an intentionally designed area for nature programs
• a new fishing pier
• enhanced bus parking
• a short trail loop
• an upgraded “bird blind” to help visitors observe wildlife
• improved parking and access to the Sawhill Ponds Trail for community members experiencing disabilities helping them to experience the fishing pier and picnic areas better.
