The W. 44th Avenue Trail is an integral trail connection that connects Tony Grampsas Park to the rest of the incorporated city with a 10 ft concrete trail that is independent of the traffic lanes of W. 44th Ave.  Just over three quarters of a mile, the trail connection begins west of the Hwy 58 overpass at Clear Creek Trail and ends at Salvia Street.
