State Park - Castlewood Canyon
Back to Main
Area
Map |
Located in the famous Black Forest in central
Colorado, Castlewood Canyon State Park offers visitors hiking,
rock climbing and unique sightseeing opportunities in an arid
and beautiful setting. The ruins of the century-old Castlewood
Canyon Dam form the centerpiece of the park and leads visitors
to hiking trails that wind their way into the deepest regions
of the canyon. Dramatic canyon walls and the unique ruins make
up some of the park's attractions. Castlewood Canyon State Park
is open from 8 a.m. to sunset for sightseeing, picnicking, hiking,
nature study and technical rock climbing. The park is also popular
for bird watching and photography. Castlewood Canyon is a day-use
park only and does not offer camping.
Volunteers are often needed for trail work, noxious weed cleanup
and other projects that help maintain the park's natural beauty.
For more information on these ongoing programs, please contact
the park.

Hike our scenic loop trails that roam both the bottom of the
canyon and the rim. Join one of our naturalist-guided programs.
Rock climbers of all skill levels will enjoy climbing the walls.
For pure relaxation, just bring a picnic lunch and enjoy the
views.
