Getting There by Bike or On Foot
RiNo is one of Denver's most bike-friendly neighborhoods, with bike lanes in both directions on Blake St and Larimer St, protected bike lanes on Brighton Blvd, and multiple pedestrian bridges connecting both sides of the rail lines. Rail crossings can occasionally present challenges for cyclists and guests with mobility needs. The elevators at the 35th St and 38th St pedestrian bridges are operated by RTD and occasionally experience outages. We recommend checking your route in advance and allowing extra travel time if biking or using mobility devices.
Public Transit
- By Bus: Take the 48 line to the Brighton Blvd. & 35th Street stop. The ArtPark is one block west on 35th Street.
- By Train: Take the A Line to 38th & Blake Station. Use the pedestrian bridge south of the station to cross the tracks, then head west along 35th St, crossing Brighton Blvd to reach RiNo ArtPark. The walk from the station is approximately 10–15 minutes.
