South Front Range

 Cultured Wilderness
Experience the blending of cultures that give a distinct flavor to the South Front Range region. There’s always a warm welcome, true hospitality and great food. Enjoy the fascinating beauty of  Wilderness Areas, state parks, quiet and peaceful towns and culture that amazes the whole family. See the old Santa Fe Trail, Bent’s Old Fort National Historic Site, the Koshare Indian Museum, the Comanche National Grasslands and the Sange de Cristo mountains. 

The high plains of southeastern Colorado offer exciting and rejuvenating activities, from biking, jogging, golf and tennis to boating, water skiing, swimming, jet skiing, fishing and camping. Bird watching and hunting is prevalent and area reservoirs and lakes serve as a natural waterfront haven for waterfowl and game. The vast prairies set the perfect environment for antelope and deer, and we’ve even had grazing Buffalo roaming our prairies.

Gaze upon the Spanish Peaks, the Huerfano (Spanish for ‘orphan’) Butte, Cucharas Canyon and other unique and scenic features that beg to be explored!
Our mild, four-season climate and friendly towns allow good use of the ample picnic and playground areas. Local farms produce some of the finest fruits and vegetables in the world. Cultural events, museums, shopping, dining, numerous clubs, organizations, movie theaters, choirs, churches, and musical groups will call to both the young and old at heart.
