Since 1912 the city of Denver has owned parks in the mountains west
of the city limits. Today there are 22 developed parks and 24
conservation parks comprising 14,141 acres in the Denver Mountain
Parks system. From Genesee to Red Rocks to Echo Lake, parks large
and small have invited urban visitors seeking relaxation in the
mountains for over a century. Most visitors don't even realize
these parks belong to Denver, but without these parks, many scenic
mountain ridges would be covered with subdivisions today. Author
Mike Butler has explored all 22 developed parks and created this
guide to help visitors find the parks and enjoy the historic
features of each park. With location maps and lists of activities
provided for each park, travelers will want to carry this handy
guide along with them on trips to Denver Mountain Parks.
