Chatfield State Park's unique opportunities for resource education, diverse ecosystems, expansive trail system coupled with boating in a beautiful setting make the park special for all recreational users.
When visitors see Chatfield's beautiful rolling foothills, expansive reservoir and abundant wildlife, they can't believe the park is just outside the Denver metro area. Yet, Chatfield is one of the most complete parks in Colorado. The park includes camping, a full-service livery, miles of hiking and biking trails, a popular lake, the Chatfield marina and one of the most popular hot-air balloon launch areas on the Front Range.
With nearly 1.5 million visitors annually, Chatfield has a lot of admirers. The park is popular for its relaxed environment and beautiful views of the nearby foothills. Great blue herons nest at Chatfield from March through September in the heronry on the south side of the park. Come out to this delightful retreat for great camping, boating and fishing.
