About Park Range
The Park Range is a stunning north-south oriented mountain chain straddling the Colorado-Wyoming border, featuring pristine alpine terrain, expansive tundra plateaus, and dramatic glacially-carved valleys. This remote wilderness showcases Colorado's high country at its finest, with peaks exceeding 12,000 feet offering exceptional views of the surrounding valleys and neighboring ranges. The range is characterized by gentle-to-moderate alpine hiking with minimal technical scrambling, making it accessible to a wide range of outdoor enthusiasts while still offering solitude and genuine wilderness experience. Recreation enthusiasts are drawn to the Park Range for its vast network of well-maintained trails, abundant backcountry camping opportunities, excellent fishing in pristine alpine lakes and streams, and the chance to experience true high-altitude ecosystems with minimal crowds compared to other Colorado mountain ranges.
