Beaver Creek State Wildlife Area

Beaver Creek State Wildlife Area is a protected zone positioned between Penrose and Colorado Springs that spans roughly 2,200 acres. The land rises through different elevations and contains distinct habitats where various animals make their homes.

The wildlife area was established by Colorado Parks and Wildlife to protect native animal species and conserve natural resources for the future. This conservation effort ensures the land remains available for generations to come.

The area serves outdoor enthusiasts through designated trails, fishing spots, and observation points for studying local flora and fauna.

The area can be accessed from parking areas along the southern entrance where multiple trails begin. Visitors should prepare for changing weather conditions and wear sturdy footwear since the terrain varies across the site.

The site features a popular hiking loop of about 7 miles that connects three different routes together. This path takes visitors through creekside sections and forested areas across the terrain.
