Kipling is a cyclist-friendly community with designated bike lanes on major corridors like Garrison Street. However, the real treat lies at the neighborhood’s southern end, where walkers and bikers can cruise along the smooth concrete trails that meander along Clear Creek. To the west, the path leads to Wheat Ridge Recreation Center and eventually to the City of Golden. To the east, Anderson Park features a seasonal public pool, athletic fields and vast open green space for an afternoon picnic.

Wheat Ridge has a long history of agricultural production with its abundant sunshine, specifically the brightly colored hues of carnations. In its heyday, the city would send a bouquet to the White House every morning, signing off as Carnation City. Since 1969, the town has celebrated its roots at the Wheat Ridge Carnation Festival. Every August, residents flock to the grounds of Anderson Park to enjoy a mix of carnival games, participate in the city’s parade, watch a circus performance, peruse the collection of fine art and antique cars on display, or relax in the beer garden with live music and fireworks.Commutes on Interstate 70
Kipling residents have the best of both worlds, where locals are just 8 miles from the quaint mountain town of Golden and expansive hiking areas and 10 miles from the hustle and bustle of downtown Denver. Nearby Interstate 70 makes for quick commutes around town, while West 44th Avenue offers bus service. Lutheran Medical Center is less than 2 miles away in case of emergencies, while Denver International Airport is 30 miles away for international and regional flights.Eateries strewn across West 44th Avenue
Nearby shopping centers like Arvada Market Place make errands a breeze, featuring major retailers like Sam’s Club and Michael’s for craft supplies, while Costco Wholesale and The Home Depot are across the street. Sprouts Farmers Market sits along Kipling Street for groceries, while locals peruse the fresh produce, homemade jams and blooming flora at Young’s Market and Garden Center. After spending a day in the garden, residents can cool off with an ice-cold Guava Sour at New Image Brewing Company. Yak & Yeti is another popular spot serving authentic Indian and Nepalese dishes, while others can dive into a cheesy slice of pizza at Pietra’s Pizzeria & Italian.
