Welcome to Palmer Park Colorado Springs

Bike, Hike and Play

In this Natural Wonder

I love Palmer Park Colorado Springs.

Palmer Park was given as a gift to the city of Colorado Springs from General Palmer, the founder of the city.

My family goes there to hike. We can also take our dog there to hike if we want to. We also enjoy the many bike trails, the fantastic views, and the many incredible rock formations It is also a wonderful place to simply take a drive.

Located right in the middle of Colorado Springs, Palmer Park has activities for any taste.

Palmer Park has 25 miles of hiking trails, biking trails and equestrian trails in its 740 acres. For a map of the Palmer Park trails, click here.
