What do you think should be Colorado’s next state park?

As Colorado Parks and Wildlife opens Fishers Peak State Park for a limited sneak peek recreation opportunity, the agency continues to look ahead for future state park opportunities. Demand for accessible outdoor spaces remains high in the state, and CPW invites Coloradans to share their ideas for properties or partnerships that may become the next Colorado state park.

“Our state parks, along with other public lands in Colorado, continue to see record visitation,” said Dan Prenzlow, director of Colorado Parks and Wildlife. “This year during the pandemic, we’ve seen even more explosive growth in park attendance, which proves the importance of providing these outdoor spaces to Coloradans and our visitors.”

CPW is committed to providing a quality state parks system, which includes the opportunity to grow the system and provide additional access opportunities for our residents and visitors.
