Colorado state parks agency information
Description
Attracting over 11 million visitors per year, Colorado’s 43 state parks and statewide recreation programs are a vital cornerstone of Colorado’s economy and quality of life, offering some of the highest quality outdoor recreation destinations in the state. Colorado State Parks include a variety of landscapes to match the state’s geography, from urban playgrounds to back-country retreats, from mountain lakes to whitewater adventure.
The Colorado State Parks Board is charged with determining State Parks policy, including maintaining and establishing parks, adopting and enforcing Division rules and regulations, educating the public about the availability of state park facilities and preserving the environment, water, vegetation and wildlife. The Board is comprised of five members appointed by the Governor, with four members representing the West, North, South and Metro regions of Colorado, and a fifth “at-large” member.
