    Tips

    September 9, 2023

    The Plains Conservation Center consists of over 1,100 acres of native grasslands. You can spot wildlife like pronghorn antelope and coyotes, and observe historic homesteads and tipis along the trails here.

    The terrain is flat, as plains tend to be, so it’s not a strenuous hike but it is full of interesting sights. Educational signage along the way provides insights into the landmarks, wildlife, and flora and fauna. It is an interesting spot and a great way to connect with Colorado's natural heritage.
