Elk Meadow Park, Nature reserve in Jefferson County, Colorado, US.
The park extends across 1,140 acres of meadows, featuring creeks, ponderosa pines, douglas firs, and aspens at the base of Bergen Peak.
Jefferson County Open Space initiated the acquisition of ranchlands in 1977, establishing a protected area that connects with Bergen Peak Park.
The trails network supports multiple outdoor activities including hiking, mountain biking, cross-country skiing, and nature observation throughout different seasons.
Visitors access the park through two main points: Stagecoach Trailhead at 32281 Stagecoach Boulevard and Lewis Ridge Trailhead at 2855 Bergen Peak Drive.
The Too Long Trail leads hikers through an elevation gain of 2,100 feet to reach Bergen Peak at 9,708 feet above sea level.
